• Borders: use this page to create borders around the picture. The

Borders dialog box is the same as the one used for defining table

or paragraph borders. You can also add a shadow to the image if

so desired.

• Background: use this page to change the background color of

the picture. This setting produces the desired results only for

images with a transparent color.

• Hyperlink: use this page to associate a hyperlink to the picture.

you can also create an image map so that only certain areas of the

picture respond to a mouse click by opening the associated URI

(Uniform Resource Identifier) in the default browser. More

information on image maps can be found in the

Impress Guide

• Picture: use this page to flip the picture as well as to display the

original location of the file in case the image is linked rather than

embedded.

• Macro: allows you to associate a macro to the picture. You can

choose among the predefined macros or write your own.

Deleting a picture

To delete a picture:

1) Click on the picture, if necessary, to show the green resizing

handles.

2) Press Delete.

Using Writer’s drawing tools

You can use Writer’s drawing tools to create graphics, such as simple

diagrams using rectangles, circles, lines, text, and other predefined

shapes. You can also group several drawing objects to make sure they

maintain their relative position and proportion.

You can place the drawing objects directly on a page in your document,

or you can insert them into a frame.

You can also use the drawing tools to annotate photographs, screen

captures, or other illustrations produced by other programs, but this is

not recommended because:

• You cannot include images in a group with drawing objects, so

they may get out of alignment in your document.

• If you convert a Writer document to another format, such as

HTML, the drawing objects and the graphics will not remain

associated; they are saved separately.
