.ODP Test of Custom animation freeform path.

Problem description: I cannot seem to be able to edit a custom animation freeform path.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select an object (I used a default "diamond"). On the Custom animation pane select Add > Motion Path > select Freeform line.
2. Draw the freeform line for the path.
3. Check the path by playing the Slideshow [F5]
4. Save the presentation
5. Select the path and click the< Edit points> button
6. Move some points check the path (note that the <Save> item in the icon bar does not become available!)
7. Play the animation with the <Play> button or [F5]

Current behavior:
 The new shape of the path is not used.

Expected behavior:
 The new shape of the freeform path is used.

I did notice that dragging handles to reshape the freeform path did change the path and such a presentation could be Saved As... an new presentation. This could be a "workaround" that may be added to some documentation somewhere?

workaround is to the move the entire path e.g. up and down with cursor keys. Then the modification of the points are taken over.
