Hi :) If possible it is a good idea to export your database tables to a different program such as Postgresql or MariaDb/MySql or any other non-Java external back-end. Then hopefully Base can connect to your external back-end without having to edit your Queries, Forms or Reports much. This is a

Hi :) You can post a feature request asking for this functionality to be added to Impress. To do so i think you post it as a bug report but then one of the drop-down menus or something should be able to mark it as a feature request. I think quite a lot of us didn't know this functionality

Hi :) It's always best to have an original in the ODF format (for text-based documents that is Odt, for spreadsheets it would be Ods, and for presentations it would be Odp) before saving in any of the non-standards formats. ODF is used by many programs and all implement it the same way as each

Hi :) Fairly soon after getting an image into a document maybe right-click on it and change it's Anchor type from to paragraph to something else, such as to page. Then when you edit the text it might stay put or at least move in a way that makes sense. So, right-click on image before editing

This is still not what the OP wants. It is possible to come close by saving the files when you are finished editing but keeping them open. Then kill Libreoffice (not FileExit). On restarting LO next time it should ask to restore the files you had open. Could also file a bug as a feature
