A workaround is to use the navigator tool in the right bottom corner. But when you do so, you will find another problem: it is still difficult to really resize it or move it even if it looks so easy.

This is discussed at issue 89920:
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=89920 .

It seems that the object is placed in the background by default, and that is why plain click does not select it. If you require it in the foreground, either before you lose the original selection or when you manage to regain it, go to Format | Arrange > | To Foreground (or right-click | Arrange > | To Foreground). Alternatively, if you leave the object in the background, you can select it using Ctrl+click instead of plain click.

This behaviour was apparently changed in version 3.

I trust this helps.
