Re: [libreoffice-users] image anchoring

Hi :)
There have been other useful responses.  I just wanted to say i find Anchor to page more useful and 
then if the paragraph moves or changes page then i just deal with it then.  I don't want images to 
jump around the page while i'm typign soemthing in or shifting text around.  I just need an idea of 
roughly how much space they are going to take up.  Finalising positions is one of the last jobs i 
tend to do.  

Obviously each of us prefers different work-flow and usually for good reasons that wouldn't suit 
someone else.  The trick is to find a way that suits you best given the tools you use.    
Regards from
Tom :)
