Draw shape (e.g., rectangle) on top of (say) pasted image
I am new to LibreOffice. When I try to scribe out a rectangle shape or a text box, and the location is on top of a pasted image, I end up dragging the image instead. On the odd occasion, some weird combination of keys allowed me to draw the desired object on top of the image, but I haven't been able to figure out the specific key combination that I typed to get this effect. Surely this is something that is simple?
Take a look at this question, are you having a similar problem?
Actually, yes it does. I saw that post, but missed the comment about ensuring that the underlying image is not selected. If the latter is big enough, one does not see the selection handles, and may not be aware that it is selected. Thanks! Did you want to post the answer? It was just a comment buried amongst comments in the page you link to.
