Often I scan images, put it into document and put on raster images some arrows, other shapes, text. But while further edition image moves in one side and text and arrows in oter. I can not prevent it by grouping because I can not select nor images nor frames for grouping. I propose new ability: Grouping raster images with others graphics Grouping frames with others graphics In context menu for raster image add option to convert it to rectangle of same size with no borders and with raster image as texture (option Tile set off and option Autofit set on)
I think you cannot even group together two raster images. For example if I start with a blank Writer document, then insert two jpg images via Drag&Drop from the Desktop, I cannot (via means of holding Shift/Ctrl/Alt/something else and clicking) select them both so I can move them both at the same time. As I cannot select multiple images obviously I cannot group them. Is this the issue/missing feature you are talking about?
Yes

I just want to say we are a SMB (60+ employees) this this issue is a deal breaker for migrating.
+1 I needed this feature today the first time, and i can not believe its not implemented... I changed the importance to high...

This problem is also confirmed in LibreOffice Writer 4.4.1.2 (Linux version).
Bug exists in LibreOffice 5.0 (Ubuntu 12.04.5 with PPA, 1:5.0.0~rc5-0ubuntu1~precise1).

Shift + Click does not work for selecting an image (or picture or bitmap) together with shapes or other images, because an image in Writer is no drawing object. So you can not make multiple selection with images. [Added some more description to make it easier in search to find this bug.]
Confirmed in following version and config: Version: 5.2.5.1 Build ID: 1:5.2.5~rc1-0ubuntu1~trusty0 CPU Threads: 2; OS Version: Linux 3.13; UI Render: default; VCL: gtk2; Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); Calc: group
Created attachment 132703 [details] odt for testing multiselect Document for testing this bug: - try dragging a select box around all three elements; or - try adding the picture and a shape to the same selection by using the shift+click combination.

Still present in 5.2.7.2, +1 for fix. It really annoying convincing people to give LO a try when facing 6-years old, basic feature requests...

Do you wait until this bug can legally buy a beer?! It is already 8 years old...

I have a suggestion: allow anything to be selected together, and grey-out or altogether remove possible right-click actions based on what those elements have in common. But basic movement of images in sync with other elements of a document is absolute base-level functionality, and should be replicated across the board.
Is there any update on this? I can't believe this has not been a priority since the beginning, I'd say it was pretty essential to creating documents. A simple CTRL + click to select multiple objects and then group them has been in MS Office since donkeys years.
Agreed, what makes it worse is that the keyboard expansion modifiers for raster images and other page elements appear to be reversed. I forget which way round it is, but using the keyboard button to modify the resize so that it's proportional expansion on one, cause the expansion to be non-proportional on the other. From a novice end-user POV this is insane behaviour.
Still the case in 6.4: Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha1 Build ID: cc57df8f942f239d29cb575ea5a7cb01405db787 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded
