Bingo! I owe you a beer!

o Go to Tools | Options... | LibreOffice Writer | View | Display.
o Tick "Graphics and objects".

As you say, this problem affects only the display in the editing 
screen, not the result, whether printed or exported as PDF, or indeed 
Page Preview. It is sometimes useful to suppress the display of 
images, as re-rendering them as the display changes can slow down the 
operation of the program, for example in scrolling.


I trust this helps.

well the attachments didn't come through but what happens is that
instead of getting an image I get an outline rectangle labeled Image 5

[libreoffice-users] doing something idiotic but what?

2018-01-30 Thread Dave Stevens
This started a couple weeks when I undoubtedly changed a setting.

If I paste an image into a LO 5.3.1.2 document I see it as in the first
screenshot attached, but if I print preview or export as pdf I get the
image properly. Does anyone recognize this particular mess-up?
