Reproduction instructions A: 1. Open MS Excel 2. Draw a line going diagonally 3. Copy the line shape 4. Open LO Draw 5. Paste the line 6. Try dragging line endpoints Expected result: You can "hold" line endpoints just like with lines drawn in Draw Actual result: The pasted "line" is an obscure/black-box 2D object - it doesn't have handles at its ends, just a bounding box --- Reproduction instructions B: (steps 1-5 as above) 6. Right-click, choose "Line..." 7. Make the line dashed Expected result: Line becomes dashed Actual result: A rectangular frame surrounding the line gets a dashed outline --- Reproduction instructions C: 1. Open MS Excel 2. Draw a line going diagonally 3. Draw a box intersecting the line 4. Select the line and the box 5. Copy the selection 6. Open LO Draw 7. Paste 8. Try selecting just the line 9. Try ungrouping the line-and-box Expected results: Either step 8 or step 9 succeed, depending on whether the shapes were pasted separately or as a group. Actual results: Both steps 8 and 9 fail - the paste result is an opaque/black-box 2D object - not a pair of drawing objects nor a group of drawing objects Seen with: Version: 26.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 04bd455e36b054001e08a0a3256d508a009ffef3 CPU threads: 20; OS: Windows 11 X86_64 (build 22631); UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_IL); UI: en-GB Calc: CL threaded
When you look at the drop-down list of the paste icon you can see, that Draw only supports the clipboard formats GDI and Bitmap. So this is a missing feature. With "Free Clipboard Viewer" I see, that there is a "Excel 2007 Internal Shape" format (a PK), for example. But I don't know whether that really contains the shape.
