motion path vectors not displayed

When I add a motion path in OpenOffice Impress by selecting an object and clicking on Custom Animation..., Motion Paths..., left, a vector is displayed in the slide marking the motion path. The vector can then be changed to adapt the motion path. In NeoOffice Impress, I can't find such a vector. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Version: NeoOffice 2.2.4 Patch 2 on Intel Mac OSX 10.4.11.

Thanks for your help!

Regards,
Stan

I'm using OpenOffice 2.4 under X for tasks that don't work in NeoOffice.

NeoOffice 2.2.x is based on the OpenOffice 2.2.1 code base. There are not going to be separate upgrades to incorporate fetures of OO 2.3 and 2.4 - rather they will roll into the next upgrade which will be based on the OOo 3.0 code base (see this thread.

OK, thanks for that.

So for those that desperately need functions that are available in Oo 2.4.x, just open your document in Oo 2.4.x for X11 and make the desired changes there. Worked for me and the motion paths. Due to the universal OpenDocument file format, the changes display without problems in NeoOffice. It's great!
