             Bug #: 44266
           Summary: Objects taken from the gallery do not align to the
                    grid (objects should have an anchor point)
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.0 Beta2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Drawing
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Problem:

When an object is taken from the gallery, it does not align to the grid. This
makes using the gallery an uncomfortable experience for those making scientific
presentations or drawing technical stuff such as schematics, block diagrams,
etc.
In this case, every time an object is taken from the gallery one needs to

1) Drag object from the gallery to the drawing
2) Select the objects
3) Right click to get the contextual menu
4) Select position and size
5) Manually fix the object position to align it to the grid by entering numeric
x and y coordinates

This is really really cumbersome.

It would be great if a single anchor point could be attached to graphical
objects (e.g. using a similar interface to that used to attach glue points to
objects).

When an object with an anchor point is put in the gallery, and then taken out
of it, if the grid is on, the object should move so that the anchor point stays
on grid.

BTW, the anchor point should probably also be the default center point for
rotation.
