Floating anchor point

[sindrel]

Some long-lived diagrams might experience odd placement of objects on import.

Possibly because the anchor point in an Excalidraw diagram is determined based on the first element added to the canvas. If the first item is removed, and other parts of the diagram are kept, then the horizontal and vertical placement of the remaining objects will probably remain relative to the anchor point. This could cause odd placement of objects on import.

A horizontal and vertical offset should be added to objects in such cases, so that top-left objects are always placed in the top-left post conversion.

A workaround in such cases is to use "Select All" in Gliffy to grab all objects and drag them back onto the canvas.
