I have the same results as Drew. I am using LO 6.2.4.2 from our LO
website. O/S: Ubuntu 18.04. I too opened a new Writer window, added a
frame, and inserted a screenshot into it.

I'm just not having the problems you are with images, in fact it seems to
be working much better for me now then it ever did before.
As for the autosizing option, I just did that with a blank document,
inserted image in a frame and the option is there.

Thanks Drew,
Yes, that was the bug and linked blog from where I picked up that " TDF
put up a tender to improve the situation with image handling".
I can't believe this obviously broken code got past alpha and finished
up in a release.
Unfortunately, your steps do not work for me. The image properties
dialog offers "relative to", but there is no "autosize" option. I have
seen the "autosize" option when editing previously inserted images, but
not on a first insert.

Neither. I believe Writer's handling of images is astonishingly buggy,
and has been for many years.
I draw your attention to
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47148 and also
There was a great of deal of coding changes dealing with image handling
in
the 6.1 release cycle.
You find the meta issue for known issues related to that work here:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116280
Then of course there are still some issues open on the meta issue 47148
referenced above.
That said I am able to resize a frame without resizing an image in the
frame, but that is not the default behavior. To do so first I need to
select the image, open the context menu 'properties' and on the first tab
of the property dialog under 'size' ensure that 'autosize' and 'relative
to' are not selected.
Best wishes,
Drew

I have just run into an issue I don't recall having encountered
previously. After inserting a small PNG image and adding a caption, I
want to increase the width of frame without resizing the image. I have
tried several different combinations of anchoring the image and frame,
but nothing prevents the image being resized in the same ratio as the
frame.
Another odd-ball situation I found is that changing the anchoring of
the
image causes it to disappear and the input jumps to the end of the
document.
Has something changed in Writer's image handling in recent releases, or
am I doing something wrong.
