[Bug 123875] New: Connectors do not snap to grid and do not react on
key
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=123875
Bug ID: 123875
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Connectors do not snap to grid and do not react on
<Shift> key
Product: Draw
Version: 4.0.1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: editing
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: nrbrtx@gmail.com
CC: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Created attachment 82131
--> https://issues.apache.org/ooo/attachment.cgi?id=82131&action=edit
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 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 Draw as diagram editor for real life tasks.
I see this behaviour on AOO 4.0.1 AOO401m5(Build:9714). May be other versions
are affected too.

--- Comment #2 from Armin Le Grand <Ar...@me.com> ---
Checked in the code; up to now snap is switched off by purpose when the start
or end point of a connector is dragged. It is allowed for the in-between tuning
points. I checked what happens when snap is switched on, and the UI is blinking
like crazy, probably because the snapped target position is used for evaluation
if a corner or glue point is potentially hit.
Thus it is not so easily to be changed, but a good suggestion for enhancement.
Changing to enhancement and grepping
