Assume you have anchored an object "to page" and this page is currently the
fifth page of the document. When you then enter a TOC on one page and a preface
on one page at the beginning, then the object is still on the fifth page of the
document. But this fifth page is two pages before the content, where the object
was when you had anchored the object. That is very likely not the behavior you
want.

To keep the object at top of page, for example, you anchor it to paragraph.
Then in the Properties or the Position&Size dialog (depends on object), tab
Type go to the section Position. There you set Horizontal... To and Vertical...
To to 'Entire Page' or 'Page text area' as needed. When you then enter pages
before the anchor paragraph, then this paragraph might go to the next page and
the objects too. But the objects are still at the same position relative to the
page as before.
You only need to know, that you must not move the object by mouse or keyboard,
because that turns the absolute position back to position relative to
paragraph.

If you insist on using "to page" then add the command to a toolbar or context
menu respectively, see comment #20.
