Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 94553
powerpoint text objects not movable
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:11:09 UTC
When importing simple powerpoint files, imported text objects are often not easily editable. I will attach an example document that contains two text objects, both generated from powerpoint. One was imported as a 'frame' object, the other as a custom-shape: Rectangle 8. The custom-shape object behaves very differently from other text objects in impress in that it is not easily moved, and many style options are greyed out as well. My real complaint here is that the object can't be moved the same way other objects can.

Reproducible. Reassigned.
This could be a duplicate of http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=93996 Although the behavior is not explicitly described in that issue, I think it may be linked to it based on the discussion in http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11083
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
