I think you've hit the nail on the head in terms of identifying the 
challenge for the LO developers. When positioning pictures, you want 
them both in a certain place on a page *and* you want certain text 
around them -- hence the anchoring option. Getting both is a real 
challenge. I think with Bruce's first method, the program (tries to) 
preserve the size and position of picture at a given point on the page. 
As I added and removed text around the pictures after preserving size 
and position, the pictures didn't move. That was what I wanted and, like 
I said, it worked well until I got too many pictures (10). Then the 
spring sprung.
