Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open MS Word 2007 and create a Drawing Canvas via Insert -> Shapes -> New Drawing Canvas 2. Draw two rectangles in it 3. Connect the rectangles with a connector 4. Save the document and close MS Word 5. Open the document in LibreOffice Writer At this point the "connector" may look correctly connected to the shapes, although this is not always the case. 6. Ungroup the drawing and move the rectangles The result: the connector from MS Word is not imported as connector in LibreOffice Writer. LibreOffice Writer does not inform the user on opening Word document that such a problem may arise.
For those who don't have MsWord (like me), could you attach your file? BTW, did you give a try to the newer version 3.6.3?
Created attachment 69953 [details] MS Word 2007 document which contains a connector
> BTW, did you give a try to the newer version 3.6.3? Yes, I repeated the steps in LibreOffice version 3.6.3.2 and obtained the same result.
On pc Debian x86-64 with 3.6 sources updated some days ago, I reproduced this. I can't try for the moment with master sources since I got a crash. (see "see also")
Cedric, Michael: is this one for you? (perhaps not since it's Writer but "drawing" part)
My problem is that I mostly see nothing at all, also the rectangle is missing Empty page [Reproducible] with - unzipped installation of "LOdev 4.0.0.0.alpha1+ - ENGLISH UI / German Locale [Build ID: af60316514f3ae3d4c475819bf86f2af837171e)]" {tinderbox: Win-x86@6, pull time 2012-11-23 22:10:31} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) with own separate User Profile - parallel installation of "LOdev 4.0.0.0.beta1 - GERMAN UI / German Locale [Build ID: 87906242e87d3ddb2ba9827818f2d1416d80cc7)]" {tinderbox: @6, pull time 2012-12-06} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) with separate /4 User Profile for Master Branch - server installation of "LibreOffice 3.5.7.2 rc German UI/Locale [Build-ID: 3215f89-f603614-ab984f2-7348103-1225a5b] on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) - Server Installation of "LibreOffice 3.4.5 German UI [Build ID: OOO340m1 (Build:502)]" parallel Server installation on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) - AOOo 3.4.1 Reported problem (Connectors not connected)[Reproducible] with - "LibreOffice 3.6.4.3" German UI/ German Locale [Build-ID: 2ef5aff] {pull date 2012-11-28} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit), but I see a strange groped object what can't be edited - 3.6.0.4 I think that I saw something similar last weeks, but I can't find an other bug.
