            Bug ID: 101760
           Summary: Picture/frame positioning: Rename "Follow text flow"
                    as "Keep inside text area"
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.2.0.4 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

When you go to the properties of an image or frame → Type tab, under Position
you have the very useful but badly named option "Follow text flow". As the help
says, this option

"Keeps the selected object within the layout boundaries of the text that the
object is anchored to. To place the selected object anywhere in your document,
do not select this option."

This option is particularly useful when text wraps around pictures that to not
take the full text area width.

"Follow text flow" is a bad name because frames *always* follow the flow of the
text that the object is anchored to: by forcing it to remain inside the text
area this option avoids the situations on which the object accidentally cross
the lower margin, hence my proposal to rename it as "Keep inside text area" or
something similar.
