--- Comment #10 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> ---
Such shape should not be generated by changing msoWedgeRRectCallout. The shape
msoWedgeRRectCallout was designed to be compatible with MS Office binary
format. To be full compatible with current MS Office, it needs only the fix for
bug 149007. Besides that, the shape should be kept unchanged.

If you want a callout shape with handles as indicated in attachment 147077 you
should first try to generate such file in file format. We can then add it in a
second step to the Gallery or to the floater "Callouts".

The mentioned article
http://books.evc-cit.info/odbook/custom_shapes_article.odt has only a very
brief introduction about how to create own shapes. Find a more detailed
description in the book "Custom Shape Tutorial" available from
https://documentation.libreoffice.org/en/english-documentation-ii/

To keep the corner rounding circular it might be, that you need a property
called "limo-stretch". That is not included in the book. Some information about
it are in section "StretchX, StretchY" on page
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Custom_Shape_Orientation_Guide
and in the presentation from LibreOffice Conference 2022 linked on that page.

I'm not sure, whether the goal should really be to add all of the handles
mentioned. Perhaps (in a first step?) only create a shape that allows to change
the radius of the corner quarter circles. The callout shape is very complex, as
the basis of the callout triangle jumps automatically depending on the position
of the handle.
