I sent a picture to the back and cannot select it to move it, any other
placement allows selection, but how do you select a picture that has been
sent to the back? I keep clicking on it to no avail. Help suggested
pressing shift tab to select something under something else, but that didn't
work either

Thanks.

You can use the tab key to select items in turn.
There is a better way. If you know how to customise the toolbars add "select
multiple items" to the draw toolbar. With this you can tick what you want to
select.

If you dont know how to do this check back.

Did that answer the question / help?

Click to select an object. By pressing the tab key you can cycle through
selecting all your objects in turn. Does this help?

Absolutely, I have had this in other programs after sending a picture "to the
back", not being able to select it and this tool worked great. Whatever the
tab key was supposed to be doing wasn't working, I just kept tabbing to the
next field.

Thanks again.

No, thanks anyway, I used the select multiple items toolbar. I was clicking
and the picture would not select, I have seen this before with pictures sent
to the back. Tabbing was doing nothing either, thanks though, the picture is
fixed now!

Did you by chance put it as a background image for that particular slide? If
so, you cannot access it in the normal way.
