Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer images disappeared!

Hi :)
The 3.4.1 is development branch for 'early adopters' and has some advanced 
features but also has oddities and maybe even regressions.  It's a bit like 
seeing a play or a movie on the opening night or in the first week.  I suspect 
that the 3.4.2 will be much the same.  The 3.3.3 is the latest release of the 
stable branch and supported for a year apparently although it's not clear 
exactly what that means.  A bit like watching a football match after everyone 
has told you all about the highlights and who won.  It lacks some of the newer 
features but it's less quirky, less surprises.  Anyone with the 3.4.1 is 
probably well advised to install the 3.3.3 alongside for when they need 
reliability but it's not easy so this guide should help with that.

Thanks John, I will try that.

So, no real difference from 3.4.1 to 3.4.2 then?  OK, so I wouldn't expect too 
many changes, but the odd bug fix would be nice!!

Tony.

Tony

Just downloaded 3.4.2 from Filehippo, tested and at this moment cannot 
find any bug fixes from 3.4.1.

However, the disappearing pics still happens in this version for saving 
in  .docx format

Now, I know some people are not keen on this work around, but if you 
paste your picture into a text box (Insert>frame), it works. You have to 
remove the box borders so that the text box does not show *and* they 
will stop the pictures moving around.

John
