This time I was watching what was happening: I copied something from the web. Pasted into a new Writer doc. Because it keeps links to source for images, I delete the image, then copy the web image and past it into the doc in place of the other. Then I need to click on the NO WRAP icon in sidebar. (the default seems to be "Through Wrap") Then I pull it to where I want it to be. Writer goes into loop, which it does not come out of. have to End The Process soffice May or may not have done an autosave, so I might lose some work. So, as far as I am concerned this may have been a process issue and not a bug, and can be removed.

Using Linux Mint Cinnamon latest Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 4647057a077824cd6782be82b2d13e06fa76704b CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.13; UI render: default; VCL: gtk2; TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@70-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2018-03-13_00:16:40 Locale: en-ZA (en_ZA.UTF-8); Calc: group Steps: in a Calc spreadsheet, I insert a picture it shows fine I save it I reopen it Now the picture is gone and there is only an outline showing where it was What should happen: By default, the insert should be embedded in the doc. Reason: if I give it to someone else, and they do not have internet connection / the url is not active / they do not have the pic on their disk, it will not show Hope this helps. The example I have attached is Calc, but the same thing happens in Writer. I now added another sheet and again did an insert. I went to navigator / images / and changed drag mode to insert as copy. saved. re-opened and see that drag mode has reverted to "insert as link". Yet, when I insert it the file dialog has a box which you tick to add as hyperlink - this is unticked (see the picture in sheet3)
