--- Comment #12 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- Please be more specific about what is the expectation here. The image has non-trivial anchoring/positioning settings: to character, with offset relative to whole paragraph, vertically offset by 13.18 cm. When you press the arrow up key, what specifically should be the user expectation? a) anchor moves up, positioning does not change. This would not move the picture at all in this case, because the positioning is relative to paragraph; moving the to-character anchor one line up would still keep the anchor paragraph the same, so position would stay. Only multiple arrow ups would eventually move the anchor to the previous paragraph, with a big jump of position (because now it's relative to the new paragraph). b) positioning changes, anchoring stays. This would often cause surprise, because if you keep the anchoring, it could not move to another page, because an object is always on the same page as its anchor. c) both anchor and positioning change. Then how? Given the immense flexibility of the options, allowing you to create very powerful layout, how should we change them simultaneously when user does this press, in a sensible way? What happens now it the anchor moves near the current object position, and the position moves up - but now the object is part of another paragraph, the one below the previous anchor paragraph; it results in some complex re-arrangements, leading to the *whole paragraph* moving to the next page, and the object naturally follows (its not what the bug claims: not the image moves down, but the paragraph moves down). Without some real work on specifications how all this should be arranged together, it's impossible to "fix" this (well, maybe the jump of the whole paragraph looks strange - needs investigation, but that's unrelated to the key press itself, just the final anchoring/positioning combination). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
