[libreoffice-users] Marching images

Hi,

This is a note for the developers. It may be a bug or just unexpected 
behaviour from my perspective.

I have ~50 page 'portrait' document. In the middle of the document I 
have three landscape pages with images (PNG files, scaled to 80%). The 
images are in the background and anchored to the page.

I am currently adding extra content before the maps resulting in extra 
pages appearing. What I have found is that as a new page is inserted the 
maps stay put and the 'landscape' page set aside for the maps has moved 
down.

So...

Portrait - Page 1
Portrait - Page 2
Portrait - Page 3
Portrait - Page 4
Portrait - Page 5
Landscape - Page 6 with map
Landscape - Page 7 with map
Landscape - Page 8 with map

Becomes

Portrait - Page 1
Portrait - Page 2
Portrait - Page 3
new page - Page 3
new page - Page 4
new page - Page 5
Portrait - Page 6 map now here
Portrait - Page 7 map now here
Landscape - Page 8 map now here
Landscape - Page 9
Landscape - Page 10

What is happening is that the map stays with Page 6.

My expectation is that the map stays on the page that the anchor was 
originally attached, so even if new pages are inserted the map moves 
with the page.

Is this expected behaviour or is this a bug?

On Microsoft Word and from memory OpenOffice, attaching an image to a 
page meant just that not that the image is attached to the page number.

****

I use Ubuntu 10.04 LTR, and I am running LibreOffice 3.3.0 OOO330m19 
(Build:6) tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4, Ubuntu package 1:3.3.0-1lucid1.
