George, that's possible in writer for shapes 1. Add some shapes 2. select one shape an put cursp outside shape 2. click left and "draw" a frame around shapes 3. in context menu select "group" I can also group text boxes, but only with Format => Group => Group I can't do this with context menu. => I close this as RESOLVED WORKSFOMRE and will open a new bug for the textbox issue.

I am so sorry.... I was so careless... Actually I was working with frames and I thought they were text boxes... You are right, shapes and text boxes grouping and multi select is possible. I can also group text boxes, both with shift+click method and with the arrow select method. Therefore I am not experiencing the issue you are talking about. See screenshot I attached.
