Hi :) Have you changed the "Anchor Point" and "Wrap" options to various different things to try to find the one combination that does suit you?
Both options are on the right-click menu but it's better to choose "Frame" or "Image" from that menu and then use the various tabs to explore a ton of options with a lot more finesse. I would guess that you have already tried this but it's worth checking jic the documentation you were looking at didn't cover it. Btw what documentation are you using? Are you using the in-built or wiki help or are you using the published guides from here? https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications or from the official LibreOffice website. Also how are you creating the decorative text? I think i would try doing something in Draw or else use frames in Writer itself. I've not tried either way but knowing how you tried it might help other people answer your question. Thanks for letting us know it's LO 3.6.4 on Windows (Xp).
