Dear Maintainer,

I am not quite sure, if I make a mistake or this is a bug. But please let me short describe:

Steps to reproduce:

1. I create a XML file and add some input fields to a position within the text.

2. Save the File as *.odt

3. Reopen the file

4. The input fields are no more in the position before the save.

I tried also to anchor the fields to the side, with no success. Exporting to pdf shows everything all right.

This behaviour is not new, I am watching this for a long time now. And it appears also in the windows versions.

If I am doing a mistake at creating, please let me know and close this bugreport. On the other hand, if I am correct, it would be nice, if that could be fixed.

Ahm and I got in the same trouble, when I add a picture into an odt-file, same here: After saving and reopening, the picture is no more in the position, where I saved it.

Thank you for reading this and your great work!

Best regards

Hans
