Description todd doehring 2020-09-27 04:18:48 UTC
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.
