Re: [libreoffice-users] making graphics stay where you put them

Hi :)
Those are specialist tools each for a single purpose.  They are mostly part
of the same eco-system as LibreOffice.  LibreOffice is the only one that
does so many different things and is the only office suite.  For example
Lyx is not a better spreadsheet program.  So you are not being disloyal or
anything like that.  Even if any of the other 3 were direct competitors it
would probably be better for us to know so that we could figure out how to
compete fairly.

Errr, it was Scribus that i meant earlier, not inkscape!

Tom :)
