I'd like to see the same feature that already exists in Writer: Text wrapping around images, so I don't have to "dodge" the image manually with line breaks and such.
[This is an automated message.] This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases. Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1 more detail on this bulk operation: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/RFC-Operation-Spamzilla-tp3607474p3607474.html
I agree that it is useful. In Impress text is only inside of text frames. And images are separate objects. We can not insert image into text frame, it always remains standalone. It is especially important when using formulas as pictures inside of text. Each change of font (usually different comps has slightly different fonts) renders to corrupted slide. Only one workaround I know: create content in Writer and insert it into Impress as OLE object.

Another workaround: 1. draw a polygon object 2. adjust text position (usually top right corner) 3. enable Fit to contour option 4. disable contour line 5. hit F2 6. paste text inside the polygon object Source: link to "how-to-wrap-text-around-objects-in-OO_o-3_3_0.odp" in http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=131394#448773

This should be obviously one of the main basic features in a dia presentation application. You should be able to at least wrap your text around an image! Ye, also in Impress. Can this issue get assigned to a main developer with some prio?

How to export the document to OLE?
(In reply to Melroy van den Berg from comment #6) > Can this issue get assigned to a main developer with some prio? There is no such thing as "main developer", and there are no priorities. The Document Foundation has no paid developers at all, and you can't force volunteers to do what they don't like. (It is true that some developers are paid by some companies (like RedHat, Collabora and other), but then only these companies can decide what these developers will do, not TDF). This might be disappointing for some people, but that's the reality of the world we're living in.

Maybe we need to find a better way to get paid for Free Software, and still be able to do what we like to do. Did the Document Foundation never started a Kickstarter project? Or get sponsors / donations from big companies. Just like a charity. Big companies, including banks own that to us all!!
Doesn't this feature already exists (from ages)? Wrap > page wrap on right clicking the image.
(In reply to dE from comment #10) > Doesn't this feature already exists (from ages)? > > Wrap > page wrap on right clicking the image. Ok, sorry this was with Impress.
Exactly, this feature should exists already, but it doesn't ><
All bugs with priority=highest should have a Version set. It sounds like this feature has been desired since at least 2011, so at the latest, LO 3.4. Version -> 3.4 all versions
Bug /missing feature confirmed on: Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1 Build-ID: a8e4f75fe264f6ece37c154951cff53f2f4fa3e4 Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE) Windows XP I inserted directed in the textbox as an image and was used as a backgroud. I also pasted outside the textbox but then the text was hidden.

Although this enhancement request is much appreciated to have, I think we can leave without it too, Changing importance to High
+1 on this. There is currently a $100 bounty for completion.
Changing priority back to 'medium' since the number of duplicates is lower than 5
I have just come up against this issue. At first I couldn't quite understand what was happening. This should definitely be elevated to high priority as it is a really basic aspect of making a presentation. If 5 duplicates is considered enough to set something as high, then I can open my own bug report and mark it as a duplicate! But that does not seem the right way to go about things, so I'll just ask that someone with the credentials to change priority levels kick it back up to high again.
Soo ... the code for this issue (if people want to poke at it is) is here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/sfx2/source/appl/shutdowniconw32.cxx#n767 The status of that check-box is not a setting that is stored in the normal way - in the configuration of LibreOffice; but instead is something that relies on the existence (or not) of a shortcut in a magic place on your desktop: https://whizzdot.com Shows how IsQuickStarterInstalled - (better named 'is it enabled') is implemented; and I guess (somehow) when we remove / update the version then - we remove the old version of that link during some MSI cleanup phase, and then don't restore it (?) or something.
