--- Comment #5 from Uwe Dippel <udip...@gmail.com> ---
Sorry, my fault (again!), I don't mean 'textbox'. I mean the box, boxes, that
you create not with Master page, but with the layout helpers under
Format->Slide Layout. A widget pops up to the right, with (in my case) 12
predefined layouts. And likewise to the filling of these boxes (wrongly called
'textbox' here and there), it is too clever by half (as the say in English) and
tries to do things 'by heart' by - filling the whole box like that other bug -
and scaling any image that so happens to lie around, and snap it in my box (or,
in case of multiple images and more than one layout box, boxes). 
Maybe UX considers this okay, I'd consider it a layout for intellectually
challenged users. It is at least in my workflow despicable because I cannot
insert an image, anywhere on the slide, scale it, place it, and then decide to
chose another layout, like with two of those boxes side by side. If I do, all
my scaling, placement will be overridden by snugly fitting the images exactly
into those boxes; the least thing I intend to do. I want those boxes for a
consistent layout and placement of e.g. text from slide to slide - and not
because I was too dumb to place and scale the images myself. 
That is why this behaviour is despised by me, irrespective when it was
'cleverly' invented, if it was in 4.X or not.
