            Bug ID: 137065
           Summary: Cutting and pasting (or importing) via GDI is broken,
                    leaves parts of selected object missing
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.1.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Draw
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: tcd at abemis.com

Description:
In the new version 7 (Draw or Writer at least), if I cut a selection with 2 or
3 (or more) images and a couple text boxes or arrows, when I paste them back
into another page as GDI, parts are missing. Sometimes it is one image, or an
arrow, or a text box. Mostly it is an image that is missing.
I have tried grouping before copy/cut but the same thing happens.

This has never happened in previous version 5.x or 6.x where it worked
perfectly. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make a combination of a few images and text boxes
2. Select the multiple images and text boxes
3. Paste-special as GDI back into Draw in different location or into Writer
4. Parts (usually images) are missing

Actual Results:
Parts are missing.

Expected Results:
Parts are not missing and are scalable as in version 6.x or previous.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I need this functionality because I need to easily resize the 'figure'
containing both images and text and drawn arrows, etc.

I cannot do this using simple copy-paste, because the text doesn't resize, so I
have been successfully just pasting as GDI.

Now in the new version 7 it doesn't work. Happens every time on different
computers as well.
