            Bug ID: 155249
           Summary: Make different anchoring of charts, images and so on
                    distinguishable by formatting marks (aids)
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.5.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

It would be useful to know directly from formatting marks (aids) what is the
anchoring type of each content.

Originally, this idea came from the observation that changing the anchoring
type to “As Character” draws a thin greyish frame around images and charts.
Additionally, we cannot disable that frame (so I was worried that content
pasted from MS Word are mistreated in this way).

So, I think it's good to combine the displaying of this frame with 
“Toggle Formatting Marks” (Ctrl+F10) function. But now, as it is, it still
would be worrisome for us when we want to disable the frame in options by
changing borders style to “- none -”.  Furthermore, it does not provide any
changes because we are unaware that this is connected with formatting aids.
This line disappears only in the print preview.

1) The minimal solution is just to disable these kinds of borders.

2) The second is to add to this border some shape for distinction and aggregate
it with the colour of formatting markers “¶” (e.g. squares, arrows, or angle
bars on edges).

3) The developmental solution would be to design these kinds of markers for
each type of anchoring.
