Created attachment 147255 [details] Document showing the wrong positions The attached file has three custom shapes in red and for each a blue rectangle indicating size and position as given by the svg:x, svg:y, svg:width and svg:height attributes. The top-left custom shape has a viewBox of svg:viewBox="0 0 21600 21600" and a constant path draw:enhanced-path="M 5400 0 L 5400 21600 M 0 5400 L 21600 5400 F N". It is rendered correctly. The bottom-left custom shape has the values shifted be -5400. So it is svg:viewBox="-5400 -5400 21600 21600" and draw:enhanced-path="M 0 -5400 L 0 16200 M -5400 0 L 16200 0 F N". It is rendered correctly too. LibreOffice is able to use a svg:viewBox, where the top/left coordinates are not zero. The top-right custom shape has the values for the path not given directly but using formulas with left, right, top and bottom. draw:enhanced-path="M 0 ?f1 L 0 ?f3 M ?f0 0 L ?f2 0 F N"> <draw:equation draw:name="f0" draw:formula="left" /> <draw:equation draw:name="f1" draw:formula="top" /> <draw:equation draw:name="f2" draw:formula="right" /> <draw:equation draw:name="f3" draw:formula="bottom" /> Now the lines start in 0|0 instead of -5400|0 and 0|-5400. The values for left and top are apparently set to 0. Such is the default value for MS custom shapes, but not for the general case of ODF "non-primitive" type custom shapes. In ODF left and top are specified in table 11: left| The left position of the svg:viewBox attribute is used. top | The top position of the svg:viewBox attribute is used. http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part1.html#attribute-draw_formula
