Object frame moves out of the way when trying to paste into it...

Hi all,

I probably stuck this in the wrong group before: not noticing a handy group
for just drawing stuff...

I know I should know about this, but I don't quite twig why I can't simply
paste pictures into a new drawing frame/box. One can get in by the 'Insert'
menu, but, why is the frame just shunted out of the way when I try to paste
in directly - so that the item is just put in the text flow of the page
rather than in the box?

In 'the old days', we just had 'frames', and drew them to put anything we
wanted in. Now we have either 'text boxes' or drawing frames, with an option
somewhere to 'convert to frame' - so what's the difference? All rather
confusing, and for no obvious reason that I can see.

Cheers,

S
