Description morst 2003-09-29 17:55:07 UTC 
I have imported some flowchart made with Power Point (Office 2000 Professional),
and importing operation has given good results, so I've saved the file as Open
Office .sxi, but when I've opened again the document arrows connecting block
diagram were in wrong positions, differently of how I've saved them. 
I have seen that this problem is always present when you import a flowchart made
with power point; the saved file is different from the file that you see on the
screen.

Reassigned to Christian.
Comment 4 christian.guenther 2003-09-30 07:54:31 UTC 
set to new and change the target.
Comment 5 christian.guenther 2003-09-30 07:56:50 UTC 
I can reproduce the bug.
When I create a similar document in Impress and save/reload it it
looks ok. Therefore the bug seems to be in the PPT import.
Please have a look.

I've never encountered this error with flow char created directly with
Impress but only with them imported from Power Point. I've also tested
this problem on OO 1.0.3 and file was saved in right way.

SJ->CL: Armin told me that this bug is most likely double to a bug
that is in your ownership. Anyway, this is a xml bug, it seems that we
are not storing the layout of not connected connector shapes.
Comment 8 clippka 2003-10-22 13:05:54 UTC 
will have a look
Comment 9 clippka 2004-10-14 10:40:15 UTC 
set to prio 2 because of file format issue
Comment 10 clippka 2004-10-14 14:13:41 UTC 
priority 2 because its a file format issue
Comment 11 clippka 2004-10-21 11:27:32 UTC 
Looks like this was more a custom shape issue than a general connector problem.
If one loads the ppt file in src680m57 and stores as oop and reloads, everything
is fine.

So this has been fixed with svens custom shape enhancements

CGU, please verify
Comment 12 christian.guenther 2004-11-11 09:30:49 UTC 
svens custom shape enhancements are integrated in the meantime.
I tested it again in the snapshot version src680m57 and everything is ok after
saving the file and loading it again.
