            Bug ID: 134624
           Summary: Connectors mangled when pasting Drawing into Writer
                    doc
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Draw
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: jim.avera at gmail.com

Description:
If a drawing is copy-and-pasted from a Draw doc into a Writer doc, sometimes
connector lines are "re-routed", corrupting the drawing.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attahced "unstable.odg"
2. View->Zoom->100%  (not sure this matters)
3. Click the grouped object to select it (resize handles appear)
4. Control-C

5. File->New TEXT Document
6. Click in the Writer object and Control-V

Actual Results:
One or more connector lines are moved, corrupting the drawing

Expected Results:
Pasted drawing should match original


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Note: Copy-and-paste seems to be the only usable way to embed an LO Drawing in
a text document.  The Insert->OLE Object mechanism adds a large amount of empty
vertical space which can not be removed, making it unusable except for
full-page drawings. 

The copy-and-paste method seems to copy just the selected drawing objects
without bringing over empty space as well.  The "connector" objects don't copy
correctly, though.
