--- Comment #8 from Jim Avera <[email protected]> ---
The problem still exists in master 6.0.0.0.alpha0+ built 2017-09-27_03:02:09.
To recap: An image with wrap=Through is supposed to allow text to flow over
the image; but there is almost no practical way to edit said text.
I would like to request reconsideration of the Low priority assignment ("minor
- does not prevent high-quality work") for the following reasons:
* While it is possible to move the image aside temporarily to edit the text,
the whole point of overlaying an image with text is so you can create text
which "fits" the image; moving the image elsewhere completely prevents that
creative work.
* Per Comment 6, you can select the image and then press ESC, which selects the
text but puts the cursor at the start of the first paragraph, after which the
arrow keys can be used to navigate within the text. However not being able to
use the mouse to position the cursor, or to select, copy, paste, etc. (all the
normal text-editing operations) is IMO a large impedement to getting work done.
Thanks for reconsidering this issue.
