            Bug ID: 129183
           Summary: grouping a shape with an added textbox detaches the
                    textbox from the shape
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: sdc.blanco at youmail.dk

Procedure to produce bug.

1.  Insert Shape. 
2.  Right-click on selected shape, Add text box (and some text).
3.  Insert a new shape.
4.  Select and group the two shapes.

Actual result:  The textbox is separated (detached) from the shape, when the
two shapes are grouped.

(Probably you will see the text disappear if you follow this procedure, but
just move the grouped shape and you will see the textbox, but now it does not
move with the shape.  (It did move with the shape, if it was not grouped).

Also, if you ungroup the shape, then you will see that you can again
right-click and "Add Text Box" (which is why I say the text box was
"detached").

You can add a new textbox and repeat the same procedure.

Expected result: The text box remains with the shape when the shapes are
grouped.


Additional information:

1.  The first time the shapes the grouped, the text box (for the first shape)
disappears from view.  But if you subsequently right-click and add a new text
box , then it remains in view when grouped with another shape (but still gets
detached).

2.  These "detached" textboxes become Frames (but they do not appear in
Navigator).  (determined by selecting the textbox and using right-click
Properties)
