<pre>Can reproduce with
Version: 6.4.0.0.beta1 (x64)
Build ID: 4d7e5b0c40ed843384704eca3ce21981d4e98920
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18363; UI render: GL; VCL: win;
Locale: en-US (en_DK); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: CL
Additional information:
1. Workaround (or preferable approach): Insert frame (interactively),
right-click on frame-insert caption, in Position field, choose "Start".
(friendly warning. If you use frames, and intend to export to .doc/docx, then
do not anchor any images or shapes to the frame, but to a paragraph in the
frame, see <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - FILESAVE: All pictures anchored to frames are lost when saving as Word DOC, DOCX or XML"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=67318">bug #67318</a> and <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - FILESAVE: Images, shapes and frames anchored in frames are lost when converting to .doc* formats"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=49184">bug #49184</a>). If you will not export, then no
warnings.
2. Reason why initial procedure does not work is:
a. textbox is a Shape.
b. By inserting a caption to this shape, a frame is introduced that starts
at the top of the textbox -- making it impossible for the caption to appear at
the top.
c. Resizing the textbox or changing its wrap will allow the caption to
come to the top.
d. But this textbox cannot be anchored to the frame that was created -- so
the textbox will/can be moved around the canvas, without the caption following
along. (not a good situation).
e. Therefore, it is wise to make the frame bigger than than the textbox,
then you can anchor it to the frame.
3. Maybe this bug should be described more in terms of the relation between
the frame and shape when a caption is added to a shape, because the same
"behavior" can also be observed/produced with geometric shapes (including
lines), QR codes (in 6.4) -- where resizing the textbox in relation to the
frame will allow the caption to come to the top.
I will leave the question to more knowledgeable persons about whether this bug
report should be adapted to this more fundamental explanation about what
happens when captions are added to shapes, or whether I should file a separate
report.</pre>
