The subject issue deals with graphics inserted in a sub-document and being anchored "to page". Subsequently the graphic will not be displayed in the master document though it always appears correctly in the subdocument. According to the closing entry on this issue, this is expected behavior.

"It's a limitation of the OOo master document concept. It is not possible to use reference to a certain "page" defined in a subdocument because the master document reorganizes the page flow, page number and references to collate all documents together. This way, the absolute reference to a page X in a sub doc is lost in the master doc. The graphic loses its anchor reference and simply disappears.

WORKAROUND
To avoid this disparition but anchor the picture with a reference to the page:
- Set the anchor to "To Character" or "To Paragraph"
- In the picture properties, under "Type - Position", choose suiting horizontal and vertical references:to the page."

Although the issue was originated from OOo1.1.4, I conclude from the above that the restriction continues in 2.0.

I am not bothered by this resolution; but, because it is expected behavior, I feel that some guidance in Help and user docs is appropriate.

If the proper coordinator (Ger?) will advise format and where, I will rephrase the above and submit accordingly.

Kudos to the developers, btw.  Less than 24 hours end-to-end.
