Unwanted break between image and surrounding text

I have a document which contains images anchored as character. I sometimes want such an image to be contained within parentheses but without the combination breaking at the end of a line, ie for the image to be treated as a character within a word. Ive tried using word joiner but that doesnt work. Is there some way i can achieve this?
Thanks

Basically what i dont want is for an open parenthesis to be the last character on a line or a closing parenthesis to be the first character on a line

Unfortunately when you hit “pathological” cases, line wrap goes awry, i.e. with “large” characters Writer will wrap line wherever it is possible, no longer considering “grammar”, only using basic “character” width.

There may be other possibilities but you must describe your context. As character images are part of the text and should be governed by text rules. How wide are your images: a few centimetres (similar to a character) or tens of centimetres (a “common” big image)? How do you want them to behave? Should they be kept inside the paragraph? Do you accept to send them flush to left or right margin? Does it make logically sense to keep them in their position relative to text (explain your goal)?

Attach an example.

Basically they are hieroglyphic words. Tgeir length varies from 1 character upwards but regardless of the length of the image it will break between parenthesis and image if the combination would extend beyond the right marfin whereas i would like for them to be kept together and moved to the next line. I can try to attach an example sometime if it will be helpful but the only internet access i have is on my phone so id have to prepare it and then transfer it to my phone in order to do this. That might take a while.

Have you tried to find a hieroglyphic font? Then you’ll have characters and the problem should disappear because you can use the various joiners for critical cases.

No that doesnt work as the hueroglyphs are yhen sequential rather than being atranged as the would be seen on a monument gor example.

What do you want? A cartouche? What is your requirement?
