Group/Ungroup drawing objects causes Loss of Wrap State
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:25:39 UTC
Test Case: 1.Insert a rectangle object on top of and in the middle of about a half page of text (see example below). The rectangle overlays text at this point. 2.Right click on the rectangle and choose Wrap->Nowrap. Now the rectangle has no text next to it. 3.Insert a 2nd rectangle near the 1st rectangle. 4.Right click on the rectangle and choose Wrap->Nowrap. 5.Select both rectangles and group them. Notice that the text is now redistributed indicating that the wrap status was was lost. This is the bug. 6.Select both rectangles and restore Wrap->Nowrap. Now both rectangles have no text to right or left of them again. 7.Any further grouping or ungrouping will result is lost Wrap configuration. Confirms bug.

MRU->OD: when grouping several drawing objects, an algorithm should check wether if all objects have the same wrapping style. If so, this one should be used. Otherwiseit should fall back onto one wrapping style which is used by the object, maybe in the order "no wrap", "page wrap", "wrap through", "right", "left". The current behaviour is not very intuitive.
