Description jtcmh13 2015-12-30 04:42:53 UTC
There is no means by which I can export a single image from a document from Writer and save it as an image outside of the document.

Hi arturfracek, jtcmh13:

Thanks for your interest and reporting!

Select Image > Context menu > Save image ..
WorksForMe, anyways in 5.1.0rc1 (and other recent versions).
Please check your findings on a recent version too.

Cheers - Cor

Example of context menu option not available for saving images from LibreOffice Writer

As is shown in the attachment, I do not have a context menu to save an image from Writer. However, it should probably be noted that this is a Microsoft Word document and the image in question has been modified in Word. When working in word, if the image is reset, LibreOffice will recognize it.

Thanks!
Can you attach a sample document please?
What LibreOffice versions and OS?

thank you.

If you open the Navigator (F5) you'll see one image (#3) and two Draw objects, representing a picture...
The context menu of the draw objects does not offer Save image.
That is by design. Draw objects are not images.

The context menu of Image #3 does offer Save image

So it's not a bug.

But if you copy the object from Writer to a Draw file, the context menu does offer "Save image"   ;)
