Hi Ray,

First, please keep messages on the list.  Others may learn from the
exchanges without actually participating in the dialogues.

I cannot duplicate the behavior you describe using OOo1.1.4, OOo1.79.109 or OOo1.79.113 in Win98 or Linux. The text wraps at the margins and moving the margins causes the line lengths and wrapping to change accordingly, as it should. There is no menu setting for text wrapping that I know of except to wrap around objects. Images show in the documents as images and not just links. I use Firefox as my browser in both operating sytems.

The only thing I can think to suggest is that you completely remove OOo and re-install. The abnormal behavior you're seeing has to be the product of a corrupted library either in the OOo package or your OS. Whether the corruption occurred during download or as the result of an improper shutdown caused by a lockup or some other glitch it is impossible to say.

Sorry I can't be more definitive.

Doug

Hello,
I am highlighting, copying, and pasting from an HTML page to the word processing Writer. When I paste, all the text is on one or two line. When I do the same on Word, it word wraps automatically. Something else, Writer only shows a link to a picture. I would like the picture to be copied as well, not the link. I hope this is enough information. Thank you for your patience.

    Copy to OP

    You seem to be ignoring all the replies and you continue to post the
    same question without ever indicating exactly what you want to do.

    Writer wraps at the margins which is the normal mode for any word
    processor.

    SHIFT-ENTER forces a new line within a paragraph without creating a new
    paragraph, but that isn't word-wrapping.

    This is the best that can be done for an answer until you provide more
    information. Like, what are you trying to do?

    Doug
