(OOo 2.2, XP btw. Apologies if you've seen this in the last few days - I've seen neither it nor any comments in the digest, so assume it got lost somewhere "in the post".) My problem was to produce some lines of text with small pictures above each line showing sign language representations of key words in the line. "Anchor to character" seemed ideal - I expected the picture to move with the corresponding character while editing. But unfortunately this doesn't work as expected. While the picture will indeed move up and down the page with its anchor character as text lines are inserted or deleted, it doesn't move /sideways/ as the line is edited. A bit of a pain!!

Don't know about the bug v feature question but a workaround is as follows: Create a text box with the word in it; put a frame around it and anchor it to the frame. Insert the picture and move it into the frame by anchoring it to the frame. Anchor the frame "As character". It's a bit fiddly and it's difficult to describe the process for getting the word and the picture into the frame but a bit of trial and error will repay the effort. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to [email protected]
