Hi All,
I have almost finished reviewing Chapter 11 Graphics, Gallery,
Fontwork. Now I am going back over it to double check everything works
as described in the guide.
I am looking for a bit of help/confirmation with one section regarding
inserting objects from the Gallery. On page 8 of the chapter it reads:
To insert an object as a link:
1.
Choose *Insert > Media > Gallery* and select a theme.
2.
Select an object with a single click, then while pressing the
/Shift/ and /Ctrl/ keys, drag and drop the object into the document.Inserting an image as a background
To insert an image as the background to a page or paragraph:
1.
Choose*Insert > Media > Gallery* and select a theme.
2.
Select an object with a single click, right-click on the object,
and choose *Insert as Background > Page* or *> Paragraph*.
When I try the steps above the key combinations do not work for me, nor
do I see the context menu options described.
I am working with LO 6.4.0.2 (x64) on a Win 7 (Ult) and I have had
endless failures with inserting media (mainly scanned images), so it's
possible that this is yet another local issue. I will try a Linux box
tomorrow, but I would appreciate someone trying the above procedures and
let me know if they work on other systems.
Thanks & Regards
Dave
