Major breakthrough in understanding.

IF the imported drawing is set as "Anchor: As Character" you cannot do "Group: 
Edit Group", and cannot edit the internal content of the drawing.

If you change things to "Anchor: To Page", "Anchor: To Paragraph", or "Anchor: 
To Character" you CAN do "Group: Edit Group" and then edit the drawing.  It 
lets you select things like lines.

After editing you should set things back to "Anchor: As Character", which 
works best.

(After changing the Anchor, you cannot really edit the drawing, because the 
following paragraph is sitting on top of it so everything is mixed up.  But at 
least it lets you select things in the drawing and mess with them.

This is not a work-around, as editing is not practical for this and many other 
reasons.)

What I think would work best is if Open Office did an "Insert: Object: OLE 
Object: Openoffice.org 2.0 Drawing" and inserted the imported Word figure in 
that object in an ungrouped form.  But that might be major work.

It might (I hope) be less work to let users edit the group even when the 
Anchor is set to "As Character".  This would allow minor adjustments.

Regards
