Example document where the bug is reproducible

1.) Create an empty footer.
2.) Insert a picture and add caption to it (thus creating frame around).
3.) Write as much text before the picture as much is needed the picture to float into the footer.
4.) Be sure the focus is not in the footer.
5.) Move the mouse over the 1px wide frame which is already positioned in the footer. Try to select it with clicking on it.

The footer "steals" focus, it's not possible to select the frame without clicking into the picture itself before.

There is a slight chance this bug is Linux-only (but I cannot confirm it).

I'm on openSUSE Leap 42.1, x64, KDE 5.
Comment 1 Joel Madero 2016-01-27 19:20:04 UTC
Does this happen if you anchor the picture "as character" instead of the default "to paragraph." Step 3 makes me believe it's anchored to paragraph which seems to not push the picture appropriately into the footer.

Can you just clarify:
1) How is it anchored?
2) If anchored "as character" do you see the same problem?

also:
3) Can you attach a simple test case - makes things a lot easier for us.

Marking as NEEDINFO - once you provide the details set to UNCONFIRMED. Thanks

Both the picture inside the frame, and the frame itself are anchored to paragraph.

When I anchor the frame "as character" the picture (together with the frame) jumps to the next page and it will be impossible to move it into the footer just by adding text before.

I attached an example document for the report :).

I am able to select the frame.

Since it arrived to openSUSE, I installed LibreOffice 5.1 and re-tested with the example image. Unfortunately, I still can reproduce the issue.

Buovjaga, when you intentionally select footer (so the cursor blinks in the middle of the footer above the picture) can you select the caption text with a single click?

No. The text is not responsive in that case. I first need to select whole frame OR change from document text to the caption with a direct click.

Hmm, that's interesting (but I don't know if it's related to this issue).

I'm sorry, but I don't have any other ideas how to reproduce it. When I place the caret at the of the last paragraph, then I click on the 1px-wide the frame border in the footer, footer automatically gains focus.

Comment 8 szotsaki 2016-05-08 10:53:47 UTC
Yes, exactly. I tried to switch font family, turning pilcrow ¶ on and off, and changing zoom but no use.

According to Settings > View, OpenGL is „disabled” (however, all the checkboxes are ticked even the blacklisting one). I cannot turn it on. Could you please try it with turned off your OpenGL renderer also?
Comment 9 Buovjaga 2016-05-08 10:58:48 UTC
OpenGL does not work with my graphics on Linux yet, so I can't turn it on.

I can confirm the described behavior with the attached document using LO 5.2 on Windows 7. You can get the frame, when you use the Navigator. Right-click the item "Keret1" and then use Text Frame > Edit.

This should probably just be marked as a duplicate of bug 75439, which has some code pointers.
