This workflow b) can be used for a small number of objects and connectors.
If you have some dozen and/or nested groups and a lot of connectors, you will
get crazy with ungrouping, connecting, grouping again. And if you want to move
the connection to another point inside the group - ungroup ...
Most confusing: the glue points of a circle inside a group are (sometimes only
partly) shown, when selecting a connector outside, but you can't connect to
them without ungrouping ...

You don't have to go back to Visio. You just always have to

a) Enter group, create glue point, manipulate connectors, exit group

or

b) Ungroup, create glue point, manipulate connectors, group again

I dont want to connect to the inside object of group to be honest. Just want to
check whether Draw could maintain the glue point in the grouped object or not.
I feel so sad if I should go back to Visio to create such diagram.

Hello, supposed I'm wrong. I use VRT Network Equipment
(https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions/vrt-network-equipment)  to
create network topology. The network object itself is a grouped shape actually.
I managed to create custom glue point against the network object (said a
router) then I would like to rearrange them later but after reopening the file
the glue point gone, but the connectors remain in the place. Is it expected or
not?

Created attachment 152070
  --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=152070=edit
Example file with group

To make the use case clear, I will attach an example file. This is an
experiment from my initial research into recreating the graphics in the OOo Dev
guide.

1. Open file
2. Pick any connector tool, try to connect to the circle, targeting any glue
point except the leftmost one

The connector always snaps to the left, because that is the leftmost glue point
*of the group*

When working with something like this Dev guide project, I would keep these
types of grouped shapes in the gallery and pull them in when needed. The
ungrouping workaround slows down the work when there are lots of repetitions.

I'm not so sure if it makes sense to connect items contained in one group with
the children of another. Sounds rather like you don't want to group, actually. 
However doing all the connections first and grouping later has to be
persistent,  even after ungrouping. And this "workaround" has no issues here.

Close this bug as WORKSFORME?

Hello Cristian, *,
I cannot confirm your issue with LO Version: 4.1.6.1 Build ID:
a59ce81388f477fc89db57f0c27f222f31884eb (parallel installed, following the
instructions from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel)
with Germanophone lang- as well as helppack under Debian Testing i686, sorry
... :(

What I have done:
1. Draw a rectangle and a circle
2. Grouped them via context menu - Group
3. Draw a rectangle and a triangle
4. Grouped them like point 2
5. Rightclick on the group with the rectangle and the circle, and selected
Enter Group
6. Clicked on the dropdown menu right to the icon for Connector and selected
one with an arrow head
7. Draw the line from the rectangle of group 1 to the one of group 2

This works without any problems :) I see some x on the triangle as well as
the circle (points, where I cannot connect the connector?), but otherwise it
works ... ;)

Did you do anything different from my procedure? If so, would you be so kind to
give us a step-by-step description, please? Or would you mind to attach one of
these drawings to this bug, please? And would you be so kind to test it with a
newer version than 4.1.3.2, please?
TIA
Thomas.

I can do step 1 to 6. But when I draw a connector from the rectangle in group
1, it will not connect to an object in group 2. And when I leave the group, I
cannot grip the connector, because it is inside the group.

So I can confirm the problem. I use LO 4.3 on Windows 7.
