Drawing electrical symbols

Hello,

sorry for the late response, I didn't get the email. No, I wouldn't like to
draw a electrical schematic for creating a pcb like KiCad, Eagle .... I
would like to draw pictures for my bachelor thesis. In draw it's easier to
draw arrows, change color of paths and some other nice things.
It would be great, when there is a possibility to draw complex symbols in
draw but without the automatically set glue points on the border of the
quadratic outline of the group, because with them it connects everytime to
the wrong points when I set glue points in the group.

Best regard

Martin

It is impossible to not have the glue points on the border, because they are the default glue points, which every object has, according ODF.

Currently it is not possible to access glue points of a single object inside the group. That is https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76277 and https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=7575

You need to define the custom glue points on the group object, or you don't use a group at all and define your symbols manually as self-made custom shape.

Kind regards
