Hi :)
There is official documentation for LibreOffice here
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#LibreOffice_Draw_Guide

Inkscape is more specialist vector graphics package
http://inkscape.org/

It sounds like you really need Gimp
http://www.gimp.org/

Someone said something about a replacement for MS OutLook
http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/
Evolution is good but it might be better to use a separate email client such as Thunderbird or 
something tiny, light-weight and fast such as Claws or something packed with features such as "The 
Bat" (not OpenSource but still quite amazing) and then an appropriate calendar depending on whether 
you need it just to quickly look-up the date or as a project-management tool for a major project or 
somewhere in the middle.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi Ben,

Dear sir or madam,
I have a problemen with drawing.
Step 1. I make a printscreen for test perpose.
Step 2. I imput the printscreen in libre drawing.

But i cannot cut certain sections with the points selection tool in the import screenshot.

Draw is an application for vector graphics.

Than the screenshot is selected and when i press cut, the hole screenshot it gone.
How can I edit insert images or screenshots?

You can crop the image to the section, but that will be rectangle. Make sure you have set the 
correct scale for the image. Select the cropped image. Then use File > Export. Mark 'Selection' and 
choose the desired format, likely png or jpg, and save the section as new image. Afterwards you can 
insert the new image.

Cropping itself does not really cut the parts of the picture, but only hides them.

Another way for several sections is this: Insert the image several times (which will result in 1 
image stored) and crop each of it to the desired section.

If you want a not-rectangle section, there exists a complicate way to use a combined drawing 
object, to hide the not needed parts. But I recommend to use an application specialized for bitmaps.

Kind regards
Regina
