Hi All
I'm creating a slide presentation using OO 4.15 on a MacBookPro.
I've made many presentations in the past and have never had this problem before:
When I either cut and paste or drag and drop a jpeg into a slide, I get multiple images, not just a single image.
so, instead of 1 graphic, I get XXXXXXXX
XXXXXXX
XXXXXXX over all the text!
halp!!!!
Inserting 1 jpeg, get many
Inserting 1 jpeg, get many

Re: Inserting 1 jpeg, get many
I've just tried with /Insert /Picture /From file on Xubuntu and all is well. Also tried with Cut/Paste and drag. All OK. Perhaps a Mac user would try?

Re: Inserting 1 jpeg, get many
Use the regular way from the menu.cut and paste or drag and drop a jpeg into a slide
Insert - Picture - From file
And always use optimized (color depth and pixel size) pictures. Use third party softwares for the optimization.

What do you mean by that?SuzanneR wrote:When I either cut and paste or drag and drop a jpeg into a slide, I get multiple images, not just a single image.

Do you literally get the characters X all over your page? Or do you get something else?
Can you upload an image of your page or, preferably, an Impress file to show the problem?

Re: Inserting 1 jpeg, get many
Appreciate your help, but now am beyond frustrated.
I tried to UL the Impress file, too big. Compressed, "still to big"
Screenshots "invalid"
Pictures: "file is invalid"
I've downloaded a new copy of OO and restarted computer.
Any other ideas welcomed.

Upload your problem document to a file sharing service such as Mediafire and post the link to it here.
Perhaps try resetting your user profile? See Q02/A02 in [Tutorial] Mac FAQ
Your signature says "OpenOffice 4.15 on MacBookPro"; the latest AOO version is 4.1.4. Perhaps you might consider correcting that - How to update your signature - so there is no chance of receiving an answer not based on your current version of AOO.
