That button was removed on purpose. You should be able to insert an image by simply clicking on the image.
Comment 2 Luis Felipe Schenone 2013-07-23 21:12:44 UTC
Maybe you are inserting the image somewhere out of your field of view? For example if there is an infobox in the article, or many pictures aligned to the right, the image you are inserting may be inserted BELOW all this, where you cannot see it.

Regardless of whether this is the actual problem in this particular case, I think that it is a potential problem for others. I tried inserting an image in an article with an infobox, and indeed the image was inserted below it, out of my field of view. This could lead to puzzled users and even unintended bad edits, and I think that the solution is fairly simple: making the VisualEditor scroll the screen down to wherever the image is inserted. I'll report this to the VisualEditor team.

Bug/enhancement reported as bug 51911.
Comment 4 John Mark Vandenberg 2013-07-24 22:08:25 UTC
It does look very bare, and many users will be thinking "do I need to double click"? (we have MS to thank for that)

I would prefer to select an image, be prompted for a caption (an overlay appears), and then apply changes.  That would partially solve bug 51911, as the user would feel more confident that they had inserted the image, and they would go looking for it.
Comment 5 John Mark Vandenberg 2013-07-24 22:53:40 UTC
Sorry for confirming; the UI design should be a separate bug.
Comment 6 James Forrester 2014-01-14 05:31:11 UTC
Closing this as no confirmation of report as written. Bug 51911 gets the gist of the issue.
