In order to reproduce the bug: [1] Create new text document. [2] Display Navigator: F5. [3] Insert 2 shapes, e.g. rectangles: Insert > Shape > … Two drawing objects with the names Shape1 and Shape2 are displayed in the Navigator. [4] Select both shapes: Click and then Shift-Click. [5] Group shapes: Right-Click > Group > Group. No drawing object is displayed any more. Expected: A default name should be assigned to the group and this name should be displayed in the Navigator. [6] Select group. [7] Name group: Format > Name… The dialogue Name is displayed. Insert name. Then OK. Now the name of the group is displayed in the Navigator. Bug also exists in Calc. Bug already exists in version 3.3.0, therefore inherited from OOo. See also bug 34828.
I confirm it with Version: 6.3.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: ffa5b8a82eab18041bbee4d6914892b82c7801d3 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2018-12-19_03:24:54 Locale: en-US (de_DE); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded
To be more precise concerning Calc and to add the same problem for Draw and Impress: There even the inserted shapes don't get a default name, Hence: - In Calc, Impress and Draw shapes (and possibly other objects) should be given a default name. - in Writer, calc, Draw and Impress groups shouzld be given a default name. I set the status to NEW, which Dieter omitted.

Repro Writer bug Version: 6.4.0.0.beta1 (x64) Build ID: 4d7e5b0c40ed843384704eca3ce21981d4e98920 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: default; VCL: win;
It appears that this patch resolves the problem for Writer https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/87996 In Draw and Impress navigator shows the shapes in hierarchical relations. Could not get any shapes to show up in Calc navigator. Maybe this is WFM now? Version: 7.0.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: 10e20a77ce302a0475a661ad1886f2ca83c55f3f
