HI
Just had the need to insert a few A4 images into a document and creating a new
page after an insert seems a little cumbersome.
The first time i tried it, I wanted to create a page break (using Ctrl and
<Enter>) after the image to insert the next image on a new page but it inserts
a new page before the image even though the cursor is below the image and the
focus is off the image.
The way i got round it was:
Insert the first image, Take focus off the image so the cursor is at the bottom
of the image, Press a few characters (like a space) at the bottom of the page
then hit enter until a new page is created.
Is there a better way?
thanks

I've found that the behaviour depends on how you anchor the image. If I anchor 'as
character', click anywhere in the margins, and then Insert > Page Break, a new page
opens automatically after the image. You can also use Insert > More breaks >
Manual Break is you wish to select a particular page style.
On the other hand, if you anchor to paragraph or 'to character', then you most
likely have to do as you describe and work you way to the bottom of the page
before inserting a new page.
To change the anchoring, right click on the image and select Anchor.
