            Bug ID: 136920
           Summary: EDITING: Granularity of start and endpoint for an
                    arrow drawn into a slide
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: adalbert.hanssen at gmx.de

I want to draw an arrow between two specific data points in a time series. The
plot is taken as a screenshot from LO Calc and pasted into the Impress
document. 
When drawing the start and the endpoints of my arrow, the granularity of the
endpoints for the mouse placement is too big. I know that I can use Alt in
addition to the cursor movement keys to achieve a placement with pixel
granularity: But this operates on both endpoints of my arrow, not just on the
last selected one of them, so I can perform a parallel movement of the whole
arrow in both directions but I can not define its proper length and direction
this way! 

I expect that endpoint adjustments with the arrow keys operate on the arrow
head if the selection of the arrow happens close to that or that they operate
on the arrow end if the selection of the arrow happens close to that and that
it operates on both of them together in a parallel movement if the selection
happens close to the middle of the arrow (which is the current behaviour when
using the cursor keys on the keyboard.

It must be possible to exactly place the startpoint and the endpoint of an
arrow independently.

There seems to be one more bug: Once my arrow is selected and if I edit its
properties and change the size of the arrow head, my editing is memorized in
Edit Styles for it, but it has no effect on the screen. Happily colour changes
are applied immediately (as expected).
