            Bug ID: 149369
           Summary: EDITING Form Controls: Default anchor should be set
                    "To Page", not "To Paragraph"
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: [email protected]

Open any database file.
Got to Forms → Use Wizard to create a Form…
Create a form.
After you have created the form open the form for editing, not for input data.
Set cursor on the background of the form.
Press "Del".
All controls will disappear.

This isn't only a problem of the wizard. Default anchor for all controls is "To
Paragraph". So all controls will be lost by pressing "Del".
This wouldn't happen if default anchor (in Base forms, not in standalone
forms!) would be changed "To Page".

Another argument for "To Page": Some users try to change the position of
controls by setting paragraphs. Have seen many form here with a lot of
paragraphs. If controls are anchored to paragraph you couldn't set the position
exactly by PositionX and PositionY of the control.
