Operation Manual

By default, the Gallery is opened in the Sidebar. You can float the Gallery as you can other Sidebar
panes; see Chapter 1, Introducing LibreOffice, for more information.
Adding objects to the Gallery
You may wish to add to the Gallery any images that you use frequently, for example, a company
logo. You can then easily insert these graphics into a document later.
1) Right-click on the desired theme and select Properties from the context menu.
2) In the theme’s Properties dialog, click the Files tab (Figure 305).

To add several files at once:

2) The Select path dialog (not shown) opens. You can enter the path for the file’s directory in
the Path text box, or you can navigate to locate the file’s directory.
3) Click the Select button to start the search. A list of graphic files is then displayed in the
Properties dialog. You can use the File type drop-down list to limit the files displayed.
4) To add all of the files shown in the list, click Add All. Otherwise, select the files to add and
then click Add (hold down either the Shift key or the Ctrl key while clicking on the files).
To add a single file:
1) Click Add to open the Gallery dialog.
2) Use the navigation controls to locate the image to add to the theme. Select it and then click
Open to add it to the theme.
3) Click OK on the Properties dialog to close it.
Deleting images from the Gallery
To delete an image from a theme:
1) Right-click on the name of the image file or its thumbnail in the Gallery.
2) Click Delete in the context menu. A message appears, asking if you want to delete this
object. Click Yes.
Note
Deleting the name of a file from the list in the Gallery does not delete the file from the
hard disk or other location.
