--- Comment #4 from Olivier Diotte <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #2) > Hmm, it is not a good idea to anchor an image to the page and to insert a > page before it. When you anchor an image to the page you probably think > "that page" when the software can't do something else than "the page at that > position". > That's exactly how I use it. But when I author a document, particularly on a computer, I often change my mind and start modifying it (to then fix things like that). IMO, the software shouldn't go in a state it is impossible to get out of (well ok, I learned in this thread about the navigator, I had never used that feature before). Would you expect Vim to display glitches in a file because you folded a part of code and then added a line before it? I wouldn't (at least, I'd be an inconvenience). > If you anchor your image to the paragraph, it will be still on the landscape > page if you insert a new page before it. > Yes, that's not what I want but, as said above, I'd like to be able to fix it. Well, I guess we can use the navigator for that, although I think it may be a good idea for the image to still display in the page (couldn't it just clip the image if it is too big for the current page layout?). > I am pretty sure that nobody will want to spend time and resources to > improve (and complicate) the layout computation to solve this problem. > > So, as we have a clear and robust workaround, I will close this bug report > as WontFix. > > Best regards. JBF I have a long way to go before I can contribute code to LibreOffice (thanks to all contributors, your work is very appreciated) and don't know if my previous suggestion about resizing images would be hard to do. On the other hand, it seems to me that, from a user perspective, if I anchor an image to a page, set its dimensions to 100% then change the page layout, it should adapt gracefully. On the other hand, if, as is often my case, the user also ticked "keep ratio", I guess a decision would need to be made what setting to honor. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
