See test file. In Word the arrows have nice heads, while in LibO they are disconnected from the heads and don't even resemble Word-rendered ones.

I confirm issue under Win7 with all LibO releases I have from 3.3.3. to 4.3.1 and today's 4.4.0 master.

same issue with OOo 3.3.0 and AOO 4.1

bug is inherited from OOo

Comment 7 Tobias Burnus 2017-02-06 15:46:42 UTC
Include data from bug 105797; the issue was tested up to today's MASTER build of LO and 5.3.0.3:

* The issue also affects imports in PowerPoint (PPTX) [PowerPoints "open arrow" ("----->") gets imported as LibreOffice's "line arrow" ("----- >") with a gap between the corner of the ">" and the "---"]. Test case: attachment 130947 [details]

* While LibreOffice's "line arrow" ("----- >") has a gap, LO's "short line arrow" does not - and could be used instead. Cf. attachment 130946 [details] (left: PowerPoint 2007, right LO 5.3.0.3)

* The latter has an issue of its own (bug 82760). Namely, the line width of the head of "short line arrow" does not scale with the line width of the tail - such that one has something like: "====->"

Should have been: bug 105796.

Test file PPTX with arrow

Actually, it's not just arrows from MS Word, here is PPTX. I'll change the title.

Test file DOC compared MSO 2016 LO 7.1+

attachment 104811 [details] DOC file still has slight differences on arrow head shape, maybe not even worth fixing.
Same file as DOCX was explained in https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45479#c16.

attachment 130947 [details] PPTX also is similar with small differences.

attachment 133035 [details] PPTX also not fixed.

Comment 16 Tobias Burnus 2024-04-16 16:05:08 UTC
In LO 24.2.2.2 (X86_64/Linux),
 bug 45479's attachment 104811 [details] (.docx file) → comment 13
still looks like "————— >" instead of "—————→",
namely as in the old screen shots:

→ attachment 163812 [details] (left Word, right LO)

Likewise for others, e.g. attachment 163813 [details] – albeit the last → (stealth array) doesn't look as bad as the one in the Word document; it is still different, however, and there is still a small gap.
