Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 55140
turn "tools/options/Draw/General/Copy when moving" on by default (maybe get rid of that option)

- place a drawing object in a writer or calc document - grab the object with the mouse - hold CTRL key and drag mouse away Result: a copy of the object gets created. try the same in Draw or Impress: no copy please enable this functionality in Draw and Impress
This is already possible when you set tools/options/Draw/General/Copy when moving. But this should be consistent in all applications...
confirming. Maybe this is an option that can be dropped altogether. (I cannot think of a reason why one could need this option - but maybe I just don't see it)
