Last modified: 2008-01-14 16:01:06 UTC
How to reproduce : Open a new Writer document Enable Shaw Draw Functions menu (see the attached screenshot ) Select one symbol from Symbol shapes (e.g. the smiley) Click on the sheet, and define a dimension for the shape When done, only the handlers appear, and nothing is drawn Fully repeatable I'll attache a screenshot to help
Created attachment 50599 [details] A screenshot to help people to reproduce the issue
No idea if the issue is reproduceable with X11 version. Can someone confirm ?
I can confirm this for 680m240 Aqua on both PPC Leopard and Intel Leopard, when trying to create a symbol shape (such as star or arrow) in a Text document. You can create the shape ok in Drawing but if you copy and paste into a Text document the result is still invisible. Here's a workaround I found: Create the symbol shape in a Drawing document, copy, then in the Text document use Paste Special and select any format to paste it in except for "Drawing format", e.g., use "Draw 8".
I (strangely ?) see just this too in OOH680_m1, with system boost which might be relevant.
same reason as issue 81673 *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 81673 ***
