Description: Applying text formatting properties seems to be possible to only one text box at the time. Example of text formatting properties : spacing to borders, text Anchor, Drawing object text... Those properties are also not available in the 'property bar' that can be opened with F11. 'Paragraph' is visible but not 'text' properties. Be able to apply those properties to many text box / objects in one operation could be a nice time saver. Steps to Reproduce: 1. create several text box 2. select all of them 3. right click to get the context menu 4. try to find the 'text' sub menu in the context menu Actual Results: Text formatting sub menu doesn't appear Expected Results: Text formatting should appear to let the user do this massibe Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Doing the same operation on only one text box works. A workaround : set the properties as needed on a first text box and copy it again and again.
Reproduced. You can achieve this by going to the Format menu. Arch Linux 64-bit Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 9b34dc20b6946698ae6ce2d5d859885bfb444633 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.8; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Built on 16 October 2020
