Problem: To document "broken features" I, like others, use screen
captures to document the problem area(s). With OOo 1.1.5 this capture
worked well. Set the page size and each capture would be inserted into
the document, maintaining aspect ratio, within the margins. Starting
with OOo 2.0 this behavior changed. After searching the buglist for a
same/similar problem and finding none, I submitted it. Below is the
sequence.

Description:    Opened: Wed Mar 1 15:37:00 -0800 2006

Windows XP, SP2, current patch list
Downloaded/installed OOOV2RC3_060222.
Press [PrintScreen] to capture full screen information.
Open OpenOffice.Writer.
Change page to (portrait). All other settings default.
Press Control-V (insert from paste buffer).
Image inserted conforms to Left-Top-Right margin. Bottom margin
ignored.
OOV1.1.5 would resize image to conform to active margins.

That is a new "feature" in OO Writer. Since OO 2.0 it is possible to
have
graphics which are anchored to paragraph to be positioed above/below
the page
borders. This has been implemented for MS Office compatibility.
If you want back the "old" behaviour, activate the "follow text flow"
option in
the graphic's properties.

(1) "This has been implemented for MS Office compatibility." IMHO, OOo
FIXED the problem that Office introduced.

(2) "activate the "follow text flow" option in the graphic's
properties." The option(s) do not exist that I have found using [HELP]
and general experimentation.
