Example Draw document

LibreOffice Draw does not consider a removed tick before the 'Size' checkbox in 'Position and Size' window.


Steps to reproduce
1. Download the attached Draw document
2. Open the Draw document in LibreOffice Draw
3. Right click on the formula
4. Choose 'Position and Size'
5. Remove the tick before the 'Size' checkbox in 'Protect' category
6. Click on OK
7. Go back to the 'Position and Size' window
=> The tick before the 'Size' checkbox is back again

@Regina, Could you please double-check this issue? Not sure whether it's an issue or not...
Comment 3 Regina Henschel 2019-01-23 13:46:37 UTC 
You can uncheck it in the dialog and immediately change the size. The change is applied and after closing the dialog, the formula is size protected again.

I don't know a different behavior, and use the app since StarOffice 5.1.

So I would say no bug. But it is a valid enhancement request to make the property "sizable" sticky for formulas too. A chart is a similar OLE object and is always sizable as default. Why is a formula not always sizable?

Let's make it an enhancement then...
