Default placement of images

Post by aechallu »

If I copy-paste an image, it's inserted inline and scaled to the available space (either the table column width or page width), which works alright.
If I drag and drop, it's inserted as a float.

Can the default behavior be configured somehow? Is it possible to say that all images are inserted as inline with a certain width (or any other default property you want) regardless of the method of insertion?

If not, I suggest that the image placement dialog have an option to remember the last user's action.

A:

I'm not on my Mr Mel empowered computer right now, but I recall a thread here that addressed your issue and as I recall, yes, the default behavior can be configured. Either Don B's tutorial or Janet had the exact directions, I guess you could search the forum to find it . . . but it would be in >Preferences or in >Images drop down menu??????

Really? I don't think there is any way to configure this...
