This issue seems to be similar: Bug 135294
But this issue seems to be also in LO 6.x while bug 135294 is not.
Comment 4 Telesto 2020-07-30 18:14:00 UTC
Any idea how important this is?
Comment 5 Telesto 2020-07-30 18:17:17 UTC
Also happening when changing anchor to paragraph/ to page & pressing UNDO
Comment 6 Telesto 2020-07-30 18:19:12 UTC
Empty frame can be filled again by clicking frame CTRL+X followed by CTRL+Z

@M. Stahl.
I thought you might be interested in this one

Little spamming around (asked M.Stahl also).. would like to now how common this is.. I'm having a hard time creating something from scratch.. However someone managed to build something (bug 135294).. and bit allergic against stuff vanishing from canvas (hope the term 'canvas' being adequate here)

So initially more interest in a global/ superficial assessment how likely this is to happen. Clicking image instead of frame surely something what happens once in a while; at least my guess)

I can report that an image inside a frame was lost (without being able to "undo") when changing the anchoring of the frame.
Comment 10 Aron Budea 2021-03-03 23:02:27 UTC
Since the regression predates bibisect repositories (occurs in oldest of bibisect-43all), let's use keyword preBibisect instead.

Repro with:

Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 6fb9f368c6824a8ff7bc5bc5cf66fc2df7d055b7
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19041; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win
Locale: en-US (en_DK); UI: en-US
Calc: CL

Additional information:

1. The Image is still shown in the Navigator, but right-click Edit does not open the dialog.  Goto does not help either.

2. I added a space before the image before changing the anchor (in case the problem was that there was no character to anchor), but that did not help.

The character property is "hidden" just like in bug 135294
