Description john 2025-07-28 06:00:54 UTC
Description:
Dragging a collection of objects is frequently used to adjust slide layout. Objects can be images, text boxes, tables, etc. Normally, after selecting objects, you position the mouse to get a 'move' cursor then click and drag, and all objects move together. However, this fails if the move cursor is positioned above the border frame of a table. In that case, only the table moves, and the other selected objects remain unaffected.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. load the attached file
2. select all objects by dragging the select cursor across all items
3. position the mouse above the image
4. drag the objects -- all will move
5. position the mouse above the border of the small table
4. drag the objects -- only the table will move -- BUG!

Actual Results:
only the table moves.

Expected Results:
all the objects should move since they are all selected.


Reproducible: Always
