Image illustrating the bug in action

Under some circumstances, connector lines lose formatting on save, and have to be manually altered when the presentation or drawing are opened. This bug has been around for awhile, but the current version I am using is Version: 4.1.1.2
Build ID: 410m0(Build:2)

REPLICATION:

Draw two squares, and draw a two arrowed line connecting them. Drag the line out so that the arrow heads are not scrunched into the line. Save the file, and the line changes expansion as per the attached image.

This is a serious problem for anyone using connector lines in presentations or drawings.

I can confirm this bug on Win7 V4.1.1.2.

This is really an annoying bug.

I have edited this bug priority to high as it renders LibreOffice draw pretty much useless for its intended task. It is an old bug that has been around for a long time, but in combination with other current bugs it is almost fatal. 

I hope it can be attended to before the next release as it is a major gotcha for enterprise or professional use of Draw.
