Note: keep in mind that the selecting 'behaviour' changed pretty recently.. I think it started with 7.0 (or 6.4?)
Comment 3 Dieter 2021-06-26 06:57:50 UTC
I can't see any difference between version with section / without section or anchor to paragraph or anchor to character.

Image is never included.

The section thing appears to misleading

However there are selections where you can include the image. However it's rather hard

The current situation is even an improvement of older versions (tried 4.4.7.2 and 4.1) where including the paragraph anchor never succeeded
Comment 7 Dieter 2021-06-27 16:18:32 UTC
I can see, that you found a way to include image, but as far as I can see, this selects all (at least my result). And in this case image is cut. so still not reproducible for me.

This is actually true statement. But it's working after deleting the Sections. I might mix 2 things together here.


Deletion of the section matters for 'to character'. You can't include 'to paragraph' in the manual selection with or without the section present (except by including the section into the selection, what CTRL+A does)


And what I attempt to say with the title: image isn't included in the (manual) selection (but desired). Not that it's included in the selection, but not cut

I confirm the following problem: It's not possible to select text with image in a different way than Strg+A.

This bug is still present in:

Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (AARCH64) / LibreOffice Community

With the provided "Example File" is is not possible to select and copy/cut the image along with the text manually.

Using ctrl+a is successful in copying both the text and the image.

Additionally, adding text above the image and then manually selecting all of the text and image on the page is successful in copying both.
