[libreoffice-users] image and text wrap

Good evening
Using Windows XP, LO 3.6.4
I wrote a somewhat lengthy text, which I now would like to "decorate"
with a number of images.
However, so far all efforts to make the text wrap around the image have
failed.
I read the documentation and (hopefully) followed the instructions, but
nevertheless the image ALWAYS,
regardless of what alignment of wrap option I select, stays on top of
the text = covering it.
When I try to shift the image a little further up, down, left or right
... a caption supposed to be attached to that image
too jumps around widly and occasionally turns up on the other side of
the page from the image.

Isthere a trick to make these things behave a little more orderly?

Thank you in advance.
Thomas
