Comment 58 for bug 709778

@Guiodic: ah, sorry. My guess is an optional feature in the linux version (but not the windows version). When you right click an embedded object you select edit out of place. This feature is now not available any more. I think it never really worked well, because when you resized the out-of-place object window the size of the object was also changed.

It would be a nice feature if it worked well. On MS Word it also did not work well, I guess it was never that important.
