Problem with shapes

I have a document produced in Word2007.
There is a drawing area with a flowchart, and after using Aspose.Word (latest version) I am open it again, all connectors between SHAPEs and Arrows missing. Same result in .doc and .docx format.
Attaching the Word file as example.

Hi Harry,

Thanks for your inquiry.

After an initial test with Aspose.Words 14.1.0, I was unable to reproduce this issue on my side. I have attached the PDF file i.e. generated on my side here for your reference. Moreover, could you please double check if you are using the latest version on your side? You can dynamically check if you’re referencing the correct DLL by using the following code snippet:

System.Reflection.Assembly[] assemblies = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies();
foreach (System.Reflection.Assembly assembly in assemblies)
{
    System.Reflection.AssemblyName assemblyName = assembly.GetName();
    if (assemblyName.Name.Contains("Aspose.Words"))
        Console.WriteLine("Aspose.Words Version Number: " + assemblyName.Version.ToString());
}

Also, you can download the latest version from the following link:
https://releases.aspose.com/words/net

If we can help you with anything else, please feel free to ask.

Best regards,

Hi and thanks for the answer…
I don’t think you understand the problem
I have version 14.1.0.0
The problem is if I have a Word file produced in MS Word, and just
open and save it on disk, the lines connected to shapes in a flow chart is not
connected any more.
That is a major problem.

Hi Harry,

OK…I hope you can fix this fast, because this is a problem, when in fact Word files is being destroying.

Hi Harry,

The problem occurs because Aspose.Words currently does not fully support such connection rules. We we will keep you informed of the status of this issue and let you know via this thread once it is resolved.

What is happening on this problem…
Is a kind of urgent, due the Word files is in fact being destroyed.

Hi Harry,

Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately, your issue is not resolved yet. Our development team has completed the analysis of this issue and the root cause has been identified. Connection rules are not fully supported by Aspose.Words at the moment. When the document is opened and saved or when shapes are copied, the info about connections is lost. The connectors will stay but not connected. I am afraid, keeping in view the complexity of this issue, the implementation of the fix has been postponed till a later date. We will inform you as soon as this issue is resolved. We apologize for your inconvenience.

Best regards,

Still not fixed?
