Bug ID: 103662
Summary: EDITING Inserting images into objects no longer works
in 5.2 and later
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.2.2.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Draw
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Not sure precisely which version introduced this, but it affects 5.2 and 5.3
nightly builds. 5.2.2.2 is definitely affected.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create new Draw document
2. Create a rectangle or similar object
3. Select the rectangle.
4. Go to Insert->Image (or Insert->Media->Image in 5.1) and select an image
file.
Expected result:
The rectangle has the image file as its background. (in 3.x, 4.x, 5.0 and 5.1)
Actual result:
The image is inserted as a new object (5.2, 5.3 nightly)
This is a massive problem for me as I'm using Draw to assemble webcomics. The
only other way to set background images I know of is to add them to the clipart
list (in the Area dialog). I have 6500 comic panels and three machines I edit
the comic on, so I cannot really work that way. For now I have reverted to 5.1
.
An annotated video showing the issue is available here:

The issue first occurred after updating Ubuntu, which installed libreoffice
5.2. However it also occurs with the official DEB files from the site, with
the 5.2.2.2 snap file, and I tested the nightly 5.3 build yesterday on Windows.
At a guess, it broke around the time the menu option was moved from
Insert->Media->Image to Insert->Image, but that could just be a coincidence.
