Description: I have a file in writer, I inserted a text box then inserted a line (in which ever pattern, horizontal, vertical etc...)I dragged the line and place it on top of the text box but it goes behind the text box. I tried the Bring to Front function but it doesn't work. It stays covered by the text box. I tried the same on Drawing and it didn't work. I tried it on Calc and it worked. The line finally stays on top. I don't know why. it is a simple function. Why isn't it the same on Writer or Drawing. Steps to Reproduce: 1.I inserted a text box then inserted a line (in which ever pattern, horizontal, vertical etc...) 2.I tried the Bring to Front function. 3.I tried the same on Drawing & Calc Actual Results: I don't understand this box. Everything is explain in the Description box. Expected Results: I don't understand this box. Everything is explain in the Description box. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: I don't understand this box. Everything is explain in the Description box.
Related question: https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/282929/ The "text box" is a Form Text Box. Apparently this occurs with any Shape, not only Lines. Writer, Impress and Draw show the same issue.
