Bug ID: 153971 Summary: Cannot direct-format paragraph, character when selecting (one or more) text boxes Product: LibreOffice Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: eyalr...@gmx.com Suppose you create a textbox, type in some text into it, exist it's "edit" state, and select it. You now cannot access Format | Paragraph..., nor Format | Character... - they are grayed out. I believe this should change. Now, you say: "Just double-click the textbox, and these will become available" - but that solution, if at all, can only apply when you have a _single_ textbox. What if I have a 100? or a 1000? That is not an inconceivable number: Just think of an imported PDF, in which every text run has its own text box. Or just a drawing with many small shapes with letters or a word each. Naturally, the effect of doing so would be the same as what happens when you have multiple selected paragraphs (possibly disjoint) for which you're changing the PS or CS. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
