Hi John,

There are two ways to think about a Frame anchored to Page:i
1) That its position is anchored relative to position on a page (for example, Top Center), any page. 2) That its position is anchored to a /particular/ page (but may be shifted on that page).

It is a common mistake to think, that positioning frame/image/shape relative to page needs the anchor "page". Therefore this option is now hidden.


Writer seems to adopt the second sense, correct? That is, for example,
if anchored on page 20 of 24, the frame will remain with page 20 even if pages are inserted or deleted before page 20, correct?

Yes. And that use case is very, very seldom. I do not know any example.

  In that case,
what is the recommended way to insert or delete pages of content before the Page-anchored Frame?

Do not use page-anchored Frames. Use anchor to paragraph or anchor to character. For positions relative to page you have the options in the right drop-down list in section "Position" of "Position and Size" page of the properties dialog.

If you really, really need anchor to page (Why?), then you need to adapt the anchor position. For that, do not try to move the object but switch to multi-page view and drag the anchor to the desired target page.

Kind regards,
Regina
