             Bug #: 44617
           Summary: The "resize shape to fit text" option causes

Resizing a flowchart with shapes using the "resize shape to fit text" option

1. Create two shapes in drawing with some text inside them
2. Enable the "Resize shape to fit text" option in one or both of the shapes
3. Select both shapes
4. Resize the group
5. Resize the group again
6. Try to undo

The more resizing you'll do, the worse the problem becomes. Flowcharts are a
particular problem with this bug. I am attaching 3 documents that display how a
flowchart using this option is completely messed up.

The correct behavior for shapes with this option enabled would be to prevent
resizing of the shape while allowing resizing of the other elements of the
group containing the shape.

As this problem cannot be fixed with the Undo command, it has the potential to
lead to serious formatting loss and thus I believe that the severity level is
Major.
