Description Aron Budea 2019-01-23 01:23:37 UTC

- In an empty document, add a single empty line.
- Add a shape somewhere, it's going to be anchored to the second line.
- Select shape, and move its anchor up to the first line.
- Right-click shape, select Add Text Box.

=> Text box is created in the wrong (shape's original) position.

The same happens if the text box is created for the shape first, and the anchor is moved afterwards.

Observed using LO 6.3.0.0.alpha0+ (6d70e04f66cbeb3aeeb1e9b69d5b201ae3d24747) & 4.4.0.3 / Windows 7.
In 4.0.0.3 it's not possible to insert text box to for a shape.

Did report something similar a long time ago.. @V Stuart Foote noted that there are two types of text insertion. 

1. Take a Circle or Square (not working for Rectangle, but for most shapes).. double click it -> Text cursor will appear..
2. Other way: Right-click shape, select Add Text Box.

There was some talk about unification..

Comment 7 Telesto 2020-12-15 16:01:38 UTC

It's still not 100% OK, based on bug 135815

1. Open the attachment 164362 [details]
2. Save as DOCX
3. File -> Reload
4. Start dragging the textbox to different positions within the table

Comment 8 sdc.blanco 2020-12-15 16:48:55 UTC

(In reply to Telesto from comment #7)
> 2. Save as DOCX
I believe this bug report is for .odt

Saving to DOCX is a completely different matter.

Comment 9 Aron Budea 2020-12-15 17:06:40 UTC

Right, and the steps in comment 7 are different from bug 135815's steps, too. Telesto, please open a new bug report.
