Pretty much a RTFM issue regards handling anchoring within Writer documents. No
possibility for a rational request for improvements when rudiments of the
anchoring mechanism is not understood.

This is current LibreOffice help entry:

https://help.libreoffice.org/6.3/en-US/text/swriter/guide/anchor_object.html?DbPAR=WRITER#bm_id3147828

And here the menu locations have changed a little, but this OpenOffice
'tutorial' is still applicable:

Beyond that, this is a Usage issue => NAB

Thanks for the follow-up! It looks as if I was able to get my LO updated. I now
have version 6.2.7.1  The problem I mention is still there in the text module,
but I have since found and used the "draw" module which is excellent for mixed
text and graphics. It does seem a pity that your standard word processor is not
better at handling graphics, but there are limits to the things any given
program does best!

LibreOffice is definitely the very best option I have found! Print Shop, Print
Master and Lotus WordPro have been unable to keep up with the shifting sands of
Windows and I miss them very much, but you have been able to fill in all that
they do and much better than MicroSoft Word ever did do things!

I have marked this "Unconfirmed" as you asked.

Thanks

David: please only respond on bugtracker by using this link
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123966#

LO is indeed a shortcut for "LibreOffice"
About env, I wanted to know if you use Windows, MacOs or Linux.
But since you indicate C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\CKHyAWsB.msi.part, I
know now you use Windows.

About downloading, do you use official website
(https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/)?
because C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\CKHyAWsB.msi.part means it began to
download but it's not finished yet.

I just tried to download the 6.1.5 version and it wouldn't even start a
download. I am using Firefox as my go-to browser. The dialog says:

"C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\CKHyAWsB.msi.part could not be saved,
because the source file could not be read.

Try again later, or contact the server administrator."

This is a personal laptop computer - there is nobody here but me, so I guess I
am the administrator and I say "download away!"

That's what I mean - it shouldn't! The graphics should follow the cursor, not
some invisible anchor point and paragraph! Isn't there a better way to do this?

We have a whole page of pictures - no text.

PS - Any way I can respond to your comments via gmail?  I used "reply" and they
bounced!

By LO you must mean Libre Office, that would be Version: 6.0.5.2 (x64) so I
guess I need to update it - I thought I had that on automatic. What do you mean
by env?

Also, have to pay attention to the anchoring of the graphic--to page, to
paragraph, to character. It makes a big difference.
