I am using OpenOffice 2.1 and finding that (it's generally outstanding, but ...) in a document of some 9 pages with a number of inserted graphics including a single drawing shown at the bottom of the attached page, one element of the drawing persistently refuses to stay in the place where I put it. I suspect that the drawing itself is inching its way up and down the page, but I haven't been able to confirm this.

The element in question is the diagonal arrow on the right, which should be a symmetrical copy of the one on the left. I suspect that it was one of the last elements that I added to the diagram, but I can't be sure of that.

If I open the document in MS Word, and ungroup the diagram, re-position the arrow where it should be, regroup it and save the document again, it stays where it should be when re-opened (under Word 97, at least). Under OpenOffice (2.1), every time I save and reopen the document after going through the same steps, the diagram's content "shifts" as shown.

Hope this helps,

Bernard Bolch
