The problem is that this is a document-SPECIFIC issue, not a general docx
bug.
Both Windows and Linux versions of LO 3.3.2 WILL open docx files. I

What they did was to create a huge text box and insert all the images

Not at all. But doing what they did is a REALLY strange and obscure way

Hi :)
In LO 3.3.0, .3.31 3.3.2 images in docX seemed to work. I haven't tried them
recently tho. They seemed to have jumped to a slightly new position in the
document but were easy to drag back into place as they hadn't wandered far.
In-line pictures seemed to be a LOT better than ones in

Ordinary inserted images do - we are talking images inside a Text Box
here which definitely do NOT work here in LO 3.3.2

Hi :)
To some extent it is inevitable that people adapt to new ways of doing things
because different software makes certain things easier. Many people struggled
with Word when it first appeared but it has become ingrained into mainstream
society.
Many people used to touch-type with 2 hands
Could this be simply because LibO (and OOo) is not handling correctly windows
OLE objects in the docx format?

Getting text to flow around the picture (or even across the picture) is much
easier when the pic is in-line rather than fenced-off in a box. There are a

Hi :)
My ex-ex-ex-ex... boss used to use boxes. People often have trouble adding
pictures into documents [sighs] and he would teach them his way. I would look
at him in horror and show the better way and then the next time he would show
his way again. Perhaps he released a video recently lol
I tried to look for a function like that in conditional formatting, but it
does not seem to be there. Would it be a good idea to request this feature
