Created attachment 165734 [details] Document with floating table Open attachment with a floating table. Process for unfloating table: 1. Select Navigator - Frames - Frame1 2. right click - Go To menu item. 3. In the top right corner of the table a blue "Un-float Table" label appears. 4. Click it. Also if you might be aware, that docment contains a floating table, the way of unfoating it is not intuitive. You have to know, that you should select the frame and that you should use "Go To" - opion It would be much easier if you could select table directly within the document, so that "Unfloating Table" option appears. Or unfloating-option should be part of the table context menu in the navigator.
Missing a request in first place, guess it was a customer request implemented by Tamas. OTOH, I don't see this button as too difficult to use. And I cannot confirm the placement trouble due to the quite complex document. Adding the Unfloat command to the context menu is a good idea, if it's a UNO command. See also 113603 about table handling in general.

(In reply to Dieter from comment #2) > Please see your remarks in bug 112704 comment 16 :-) Still valid. The button itself is not obtrusive (yet working) but most users will search the context menu. Let's do this. The missing undo is a big issue too. Worth another ticket.
Please take into account bug 112704 comment 8, bug 112704 comment 10, bug 112704 comment 14. In essence: The function is more that just "fix something broken". It is more like a generic function to put arbitrary content into frame / move frame content from frame to outside. It asks for a toggle (bidirectional) function; close in spirit to "Convert text to table/table to text". The "put to frame" functionality already exists when you select something and create a frame. So possibly this needs to be just shaped in general-purpose UNO function, with main menu entries (and of course, context menu).
There is an 'Unfloat Frame Content' menu item in the Frame context menu that may do the same as the 'Un-float Table' button. I don't know how to get the 'Un-float Table' button to show other than using the 'Document with floating table' in the attachments document. Both methods result in a crash for me when I try with that document. To test, I used: Version: 26.2.0.0.alpha1+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: cbee4864f7237c4f052e5de33045eeb36b3fef3c CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: x11 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Testing the 'Unfloat Frame Content' method with a simple document that has a table in a frame I don't get a crash. I also don't see the 'Un-float Table' button. I also noticed that undo after the frame is unfloated does not restore the table in the frame.
