Description Olivier Diotte 2013-10-11 02:29:33 UTC

Steps to reproduce:
1. Insert an image from file
2. Right-click 'Caption'
3. Position is greyed out on 'Below'
4. Reproduce on a table created within Writer: position can be changed

This affects tables copied from Calc as well as images at the very least.

This is a valid enhancement request. It is possible to do it manually (move the corresponding paragraph above the object after inserting it in the default position below); so it should be no harder to do it automatically.

Confirming as NEW.

I just upgraded to 4.1.2.3 and it is fixed.

Also, how do I move the paragraph above the object?
I always thought that wasn't possible and ended up cutting the object, deleting the frame, then pasting and entering a new caption.

Do I have to move the object within the frame and cut-and-paste the paragraph or is there some way I missed to move the paragraph from bottom to top?

Oh, I was absolutely sure I tested it wit the latest version. Looks like I had some earlier LO open at the moment...

Closing as WORKSFORME.
