Do you have the help files installed? I don't generally use Impress, but I know from changes in Writer that I have had to look for things (including the Insert Document function from 5.x). I just opened Impress (6.0.3.2) and a) (based on Virgil's reply), found the insert file function slide function (oddly to me, under Slide rather than Insert) and b) checked the help file which in an sub-entry for insert has instructions for inserting either a whole file or selected slides. This is similar to changes in Writer, although, actually, more accessible in the Impress help file than the Writer one. Actually, I cannot find equivalent help in Writer at the moment as the Insert document is now handled by Insert text from document which I do not see documented or at least clearly indexed (at least in my Spanish-language help files), neither do I see the possibility of selecting only part of the text before insertion (which makes the label for the command misleading). Anne and Virgil, I am not sure why some menus have changed, but I think that we have to recognize that LO faces two issues. First, some of the menus are exceedingly long at this point (at least in Writer) and so subject to reorganization. Second, some functions may be redone rather than completely lost, and redoing should, perhaps be our first assumption leading us to either hunt around, check the help files, or, later, resort to the forum. In addition, since we are using the bleeding edge version of LO, we have to expect not only changes, but perhaps some flaws in those changes and be prepared to give feedback. I have discovered one problem with resizing related to Gtk3 in 6.0. I find one change in Word annoying (where one could formerly create columns by marking the text and clicking "columns" and now must insert a section and then the text in the section). There feedback is the crucial thing. The column command change may be related to changing and expanding functionality or simply a lack of understanding of good workflow for the users (although I will give the benefit of the doubt here). In this case I am foregoing feedback at the moment because, while I find the prior organization more flexible and reasonable in terms of workflow, I cannot say it impedes my work. It simply changes the order in which I do things.
