Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 128359
Drawing function in the Drawing toolbar should remain active after releasing the mouse button

While the curve function is selected from the drawing toolbar, the user should be able to remain this function active to be able to draw another object from the same type without the need to re-clicking every time the user releases the mouse button. This problem can be annoying due to the tedious process that the user has to go through to draw a complete object using the curve function from the drawing toolbar. Steps: 1.Open OpenOffice. 2.Select Drawing to open a blank page to draw on. 3.To start drawing select the curve function from the Drawing toolbar located at the bottom of the page. 4.If the drawing toolbar is not visible Click View > Toolbars > Drawing. 5.After selecting the curve function the mouse changes to 6.Start to draw an object, but as soon as you release the mouse button the mouse go back to original, which means that you need to select the curve function again to be able to continue drawing.
Symbols keep selected, if you double-click the icon. Than you can draw several rectangles without clicking the icon again, for example. Doesn't that work on Mac?
Since there has been no response to in almost 2 months I am closing this as not reproducible
