            Bug ID: 141522
           Summary: Image Anchor options forced to (wrong) default in my
                    existing .docx file,
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: amigofish at gmail.com

Description:
Recent rewrite of Libre "Writer" code for how images are wrapped inside
bordering text in a document - has arbitrarily set the Anchor default to "as
character."  That deactivated all my prior-chosen wrap options pertaining to an
existing image in a formerly nicely formatted document. My recent update of
Libre Office brought me up to version 7.0.5.2  x64.  I had to hunt around image
Properties and found the anchor option had been changed (defaulted?) to "as
character" instead of my own setting, "to page" or "to paragraph". I changed
anchor back to "to page" and all the Wrap options became enabled again. Then I
had to fuddle with setting wrap to my correct prior settings.  I have a lot of
existing files containing images that should be anchored to "Page" which'll
have to be fixed if I dare to edit them. Or could you fix Writer to not mess
with Anchor values already set.   Many thanks.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Edit an existing .docx file with Libre Office Writer
2.Select and move around an image (that was anchored to Page) amongst some
text.
3.Now check its properties to see if the Anchor option says "as character"

Actual Results:
An image that was previously anchored to "Page" is now anchored "as Character"

Expected Results:
Should have said Anchored "To Page"


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
