Bug ID: 168562
Summary: show outlines around selected objects like shapes,
charts etc
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.8.1.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
when a shape/chart is selected in writer, no outline is drawn around the
shape/chart, just eight dots around it's boundary. it would be nice to have an
ant-line boundary around it so that the user has some idea of the shape/chart's
boundary.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a new document in writer and insert a shape
2. select the shape and rotate (say you inserted a square, make it into a
dimond after rotation)
Actual Results:
the resize handles are all placed in open space around the shape without any
visual clue about what they are related to. the handles being scattered, it's
hard for the user to find what point the one he's looking at currently leads
to, say from left handle to the right handle.
if there were an ant-line, it would be much more intuitive.
Expected Results:
the handles should be connected with an ant-line.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
