Libreoffice - How to insert an image like in Microsoft word
by vmelkon from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6NX1Q)
Hello,
Let's say I have a few pages of text.
At line 100, I want to insert an image, 200 x 400 pixels.
On MS Word, it seems to insert the image on its own line and it pushes the lines 100 and plus, down by 400 pixels or something.
^^^^^That is the behavior that I want.
The image consumes a certain amount of height on the page and the rest gets pushed down.
I don't have to do any work myself since Word, by default, does the right thing.
The image is also placed on the left hand side.
On LibreOffice Writer, I think the image is inserted like a word. It pushes the sentence to the right by 200 pixels.
I have to position the caret at the right spot, I have to press Enter about 20 times so that line 101 ends up as a new line.
Then, I have to sometimes, push the image to the left hand side of the page because I don't want the image to be in the center of the page.
I always run the latest version of LibreOffice. Right now, it is 24.2.4.2.
The above mentioned behavior is present since I started to use LO (version 6.x)
The time has come for me to learn to configure LO to my liking.
If it matters, I always use View -> Web
Thank you!
