Description p_kongstad 2013-03-02 10:14:45 UTC
Today all pictures inserted to Calc is anchored to page.

The basic of spreadsheets are that data is linked to cell addresses, so it is not naturally that pictures should be handled differently.

Also Excel is handling this differently than Calc.

So please consider to default inserting pictures anchored to cell instead of page.

Please allow for dragging from one cell to another cell as well.

In Excel 2010 as an example inserting a picture is inserted with the option 'Move but don't size with cells'
Excel has 3 options available:
Move and size with cells
Move but don't size with cells
Don't move or size with cells

Bug still present in  5.3.0.3

Bug 86739 is the same. I'll mark this one as a duplicate because of your excessive comments and multiple issues mentioned here. No need to write "bug still present" unless something is changed.

"Please allow for dragging from one cell to another cell as well." is another issue and different issues cannot be reported in a single bug. But dragging is possible, if image is anchored to cell. 

Calc has options to protect position and size but it's also another issue.
