I think you've gotta hold down ctrl or shift while dragging the corner. 
something like that anyway.
One of the traps I ran into with Office software, OO, Libre and similar 
was that resizing within the document doesn't affect the saved image 
size, the original huge file is saved but display dimensions for the 
page are altered.
I found it better to create the image type, quality, size and dimensions 
in image software gimp or inkscape then paste that save into the document.
