            Bug ID: 114745
           Summary: Help is out of date
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mrzenwiz at gmail.com

I wanted to know how to change the background of a document to be an image on
my computer.  I clicked on Help, and it said to click on Format -> Page and
select the Background tab.

There is no Background tab on that page.

The correct tab is the Area tab, and that has 6 buttons, none of which (to a
user) is clearly the one to set a background image (Bitmap - how is that
anything a normal, non-techie user would recognize as a place to set the
background image?).

At least if this was explained in the Help section, that would be a minimum,
but if this is going to reach the millions of people who use MS Office, it has
to be less cryptic to the overwhelming majority of folks who are not
developers.

I wish I could say that this is the only one, but I have seen errors like this
elsewhere.  I will report them as soon as I see another.
