Bug#883989: libreoffice-draw does not allow editing glue points

[Thomas Vaughan <tevaughan@gmail.com>]

That's great news! It's interesting to me that this bug would seem to go so long unreported, especially since it affects both MS Windows and Linux.

Maybe editing glue points is not commonly done (though I find such editing essential to almost any drawing that I do).

Or maybe folks have been lazy like me and not reporting bugs as they should, while sitting on an old version of Libreoffice and hoping for a fix some day.

Anyway, it's good to know that a fix is on the way!

Sounds like https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113594
which just got a commit backported into the libreoffice-6-0 branch so
it is (probably) fixed in upcoming 6.0.0 rc1.
