Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 49316
connect rectangles on 8 points
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:39:56 UTC
first: I am not sure which beta of OO I use. In the about window is only 1.9.95. Situation: A draw document with two rectangle objects in it. I want to connect them with a line. The point is I do not want to connect them horizontal or vertical. I want to it diagonal about the corners(!). So a rectangle should have 8 connection points (on each line and each corner). I think this is a simple functionality each drawing application this class should have! btw: I am not sure what are the difference between "rectangles" in the drawing toolbar and rectangles in the "shape" toolbar.

Priority changed. Using the gluepoint function you can set connection points wherever you want them to.
