I inserted a picture on my document. I want to write some text right on that inserted picture itself. How to do this? Or it is also ok if the picture appeared at the back of the actual text on page so that text is readable but appears on the picture itself. Either way I can adjust.
Please, reopen your question to improve it. Click on … below it, then on the “pencil” icon. Don’t use a comment to provide additional information.
Mention OS name, LO version (all 4 numbers or, better, a copy of Help
>About LO
) and save format.
How did you insert the picture? Are you familiar with styles?
For best advice, attach a sample file.
My question is very clear. Please delete your answer or answer my question. Otherwise you are trolling my question
I am not “trolling” your question. I am trying to guess what is your skill level. The short answer is customise the frame style Wrap property to Through and anchor your frame (picture) to the paragraph you want to overlay. Of course, both indents/alignment in paragraph style and position parameters in frame style must be consistent with each other.
This is the “technical” answer, but if this sounds Klingon, attach a sample file and I’ll modify it accordingly. Note it won’t work (be persistent) if your document is anything other than .odt.
easiest way probably just Insert > Text box

Text boxes are drawing objects. Consequently they have no relationship with text. At least they are not controlled by styles which implies manual configuration on every occurrence (acceptable if there are really few pictures but not user-friendly when there are a lot).
The idea is to reverse the concept: overlay the picture over text (which is easy to do with a frame style) instead of trying to add text over the picture.
