Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 96294
Line Callouts lines don't connect to boxes

Line Callouts 1 and 2 - the line does not connect to the text box, and cannot be made to do so. I would attach a sample file as recommended, if there was any way to do so :(

The lines do not connect and never did. The preview on the buttons shows this, too. This is an enhancement, not a bug. Reassigned.
That is not true, the button previews for Line Callouts 1 & 2 show the lines connected, in my OOO300m9, on Windows XP Home. I would like if they were or could be connected, this enhancement makes them rather useless for me. /Paul
Attaching a screenshot, they are not connected on the buttons. As a workaround you can easily design a callout yourself (blue box with a connector attached). You can store it in the gallery to have it available all the time.

Evidently something different between your version and mine, see my screen dump. /Paul

Checked on another machine running Debian - callout previews look the same as on my XP machine, not like your screenshot. /Paul
