I want to print presentations on a black and white printer. The background and background objects would be just blocks of black and I don't want them to print. What is the easiest way to do what I want?

In responding to a question, people often post their comments as an answer rather than a comment. (I did that a few times before realizing that there is a smaller button for comments.)

Is there a way to convert those “answers” to comments? That is, can someone with enough karma or authority do that?

Like many other people, I am frustrated with how to get images to stay where I want them.

In this case, I want to put the logo of our organization in the header. I read somewhere that the best way to do this is to anchor the image to the page. However, when I save the document with the image anchored to the page and open it up again, the image is no longer anchored to the page but reverts to being anchored to a character. This means that it has moved from the header into the main body.

I would appreciate some explanation of why the image won't stay anchored to the page. Also, what is the best way to ensure that objects remain where I want them? What is the easiest way to set up a stationery template? This should not be so hard!

Thank you for your insights.

The Calc status bar displays what appears to be the language that was selected at Options > Language Settings > Languages. Is that correct? If not, what language does it show?

I am asking because it would usually be obvious to the user which language was selected as the default. It seems that it would be more useful to show the language that is set with either formatting or styles.

In a previous installation of LibreOffice 6.0, I was able to apply application colors (via Tools>Options>Application Colors) that I don’t see now. For example, I used a color called Pink 8. There were other pastel colors as well, with similar names. In the drop-down menu, I don’t see a palette with the colors I am looking for.

The Standard palette in LO 5.4 (which contains Pink 8) has different colors than the Standard palette for 6.0. Here is what the LO 5.4.5.1 palette looks like, at least for me:

As you can see, it has a scrollbar on the right, which the 6.0.1 version does not.

Has the color selection changed or can I do something to have access to those colors again?

What is the difference between tags called meta and those called common?
