Trunk build: r1413470 steps: 1.new a document 2.insert two line object and set different height and width 3.select them and check the height and width box defect: the height and width box is not blank.
when select the two object,the height and width box is not blank,but become to group object size.and when ungroup it,still keep group object size,no become blank.
when select two different position object,the horizontal and vertical box no become blank.but become to group object position.and when ungroup it,still keep group object size,no become blank.
ALG: This is not a bug, but a feature. It shows the pos/size (and rotation) of the whole selection, exactly the same way the Pos&Size dialog does. I think it was an error in symphony not do do so. There is no reason to not allow this useful edit feature; it's different from e.g. two different colors of two objects because it makes sense and is useful (as said, same as multiselection in the corresponding dialog). Another hint that this was always wanted is that the involved slots also handle multiselection well (because of the dialog). To remove this feature, a 2nd set of slots (or a bollean flag slot) would be needed.
