Thanks for bugreport [reproduced] in 3.6.3 on RFR 17 64 bit with self-created document using original description. Produced DOC file behaves as described in msWord 2003 and 2007. [reproduced] in 3.4.2 on Windows XP 32 bit unfortunaly I have no MS Word to test... does anybody still reproduce this issue with recent LibO 4.0.4 and 4.1.0 releases? in 4.1.0 problem remains ok. issue is still confirmed. moving from mab3.6 to mab4.0 since 3.6.x is no longer supported. (This is an automated message.) Setting priority to highest as this is a 4.0 MAB. This is part of an effort to make the importance of MAB reflected in priority too. Moving to mab4.1 (Bug 60270) because: - 4.0 reached EOL (End Of Life) - bug confirmed in later version is this bug still valid in current 4.2.4.2 release? if yes, please move it from mab4.1 to mab 4.2 list since 4.1.x is EOL Additional findings: Only happens with .doc (not docx) Only happens with anchor -> as character (none of the other 3 choices) Existed at branch point so this was inherited from OOo (version updated) Moving to mab4.2 as I see this being a potential problem with loss of data, also setting to major as there is loss of data. please retest with 4.3.x or 4.4.x versions and tell if issue persists. I have to MS Word to test it personally Ubuntu 14.04 x64 LibreOffice 4.3.4.1 release Microsoft Office 2010 I can confirm that the issue still exists but am taking it off of MAB. Reasoning below: Despite the issue being present since OOo days (thus not introduced by LibreOffice and not a regression) there appears to be a single user who has reported it and is affected by it. It requires a specific set of steps that is not affecting a lot of users. That being said, still boosting to Major as there is loss of data. |

Created attachment 66500 [details] Sample .DOC file DOC files created in LO lose drawings after field update in MS Word 2007, when drawings are anchored "as character". Steps to reproduce: 1. In LibreOffice add some drawings to document. Group them and set anchor "as character". 2. Save as .doc MSWord 2003. 3. Open in MS Word 2007. 4. Press Ctrl+A to select all and then F9 to refresh all fields. Drawings disappear. I suspect that the problem is in the anchor as character. The change of drawing position from "inside text" to something different and back in Word 2007 fixes the problem. Drawings with other anchors are not influenced.
