Hi Miklos
Can you provide more information about the 2nd part of your mail ?
Why do you connect the unit-test part to the CustomShapeGeometry?
Any detail would be appreciated...

Just a suggestion: it's great if developers doing the real work have their
name attached to patches, instead of you being a proxy. One benefit of that
is if you cause a regression, we won't blame you, but the one who in fact
introduced it. ;-)

So, it seems that the way the mirrored x/y property can be read via
CustomShapeGeomery (as done in the testcase part of the patch) should work
for writing as well: you found that it's not working, but that's a bug. It
would be excellent if that could be fixed, and then that API would be used
from the VML import filter.

In the end that would result in a consistent API which we all want in the
long run.

Does that make sense?

Thanks,

Miklos
