--- Comment #7 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> ---
The example file does not use a textbox but a custom shape. To have a constant
corner radius it would need an own geometry definition beyond those that are
compatible to Microsoft Office. That is possible, it would be a shape type
"non-primitive" in ODF and a `custGeom` in OOXML.

The problem would not exist, if a true textbox were used.

The corner radius defines the geometry not a style. I'm sure, that the standard
will not be changed in this regard.

I would solve "fixed radius" in the UI, so that when changing the size of the
shape a new internal value for the adjustment handle is automatically
calculated, that results in an unchanged visual radius.

In case of a custom shape, we have already the "Control Point" in the
Position&Size dialog in a way, that it is measured as visual distance. Thus an
internal calculation from visual distance to internal adjustment value already
exists.
