Bug ID: 127505
Summary: Support connectors with multiple junctures/turns
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.3.0.2 rc
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Draw
Assignee: [email protected]

At the moment, (straight-angle) connectors can only have up to 2 turns, e.g.
one of:
---->
or
---
|
v
or
---
|
--->
but for many diagrams, connectors with more turns are sorely needed. This is
especially true when you want to connect two objects with some other object
standing in the way of the connector - either you go through it, or around it.
Right now we resort to lame solutions such as connecting up to some arbitrary
point (with no snapping to that point usually), then connecting from that point
onwards. Or perhaps - a size-0, transparent box as a mid-way anchor.
It would be best if these connectors could have a toggleable option to avoid
other objects by additional turns; but regardless - it should be possible to
add a "joint" of 2 turns to any of their straight segment, and then manipulate
each segment separately. IIANM, Microsoft Visio has this feature.
