Description: Small shapes are hard to drag; constantly hitting the resize handles Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Draw 2. Insert a square with a size of 0,3 by 0,3 cm (or 0,11 by 0,11 inch) 3. Try to move the shape around by dragging at zoom-level 100% or below Actual Results: Dragging the shape is hard, you always hit the handles Expected Results: I haven't done a comparison with other apps, but this unpractical. Zooming in to 160% or so improves the handling, but the full page isn't visible anymore.. so you can't drag and drop it large distances anymore Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: c52f139b4f7140033144dde29f70a39ebedb6aa0 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 8.1 X86_64 (6.3 build 9600); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: nl-NL (nl_NL); UI: nl-NL Calc: CL threaded

Created attachment 197125 [details] Illustration of the bug manifesting: Two small squares, one selected, in Impress In the attached screeshot we see how a small square shape is completely covered by its resize handles, making it impossible to move-by-drag without zooming in.
I would CONFIRM this bug, although I'm not sure what the best solution should be.
Why don't you zoom in? I can easily grab a 0.01 cm large shape at 400% (and construct a use case at different scales).
Move the object with arrow keys: Shift+Key for large move, Key for normal move, Alt+Key for short move. Thus having a handle outside the object as provided by e.g. MS Office or SoftMaker, has a low priority for me.
Proposed workarounds are keyboard use and zoom in. => NAB
