This bug exists in AOO 4.0.1 AOO401m5(Build:9714) too. (In reply to comment #1) > This bug exists in AOO 4.0.1 AOO401m5(Build:9714) too. So, inherit from AOO. Reproducible, tested using Windows 8.1 with LibreOffice 4.1.4.2. Kind regards, Joren |

Created attachment 90919 [details] ODG file with demonstration of the problem with Straight Connectors As far I can understand - Arrows from Lines and Arrows sub-panel of Drawing toolbar can: 1. be straight (horizontal or vertical = rotated by 45/90/135/180/225/270/315/360) if I press <Shift> key; 2. snap to grid. I use LibreOffice Draw for diagram creating. So I use elements from Drawing sub-panels Connectors, Glue Points and Basic Shapes. It was a surprise for me, that Straight Connectors do not snap to grid and do not react on <Shift> key. It is very difficult do connect Connector line to some object without these two options if one of line ends is not connected. The example is in attachment. It demonstrates, that: 1. «Straight Connector ends with Arrow» line does not snap to grid and does not react to <Shift> key, so it is difficult to keep it horizontal or vertical. 2. «Line Ends with Arrow» line snaps to grid and react to <Shift> key, but it does not connect to another object (does not have glue-point, it is not a connector). Please, if it possible, allow Connector line to act as other lines (add snap to grid and a reaction on <Shift> key). Without this changes it will be very difficult to use LO Draw as diagram editor for real life tasks. I see this behaviour on LO Version: 4.1.3.2 Build ID: 410m0(Build:2) and LO 3.5.7.2 Build ID: 350m1(Build:2). May be other versions are affected too.
