Description Daniel Nesbitt 2014-07-23 11:09:00 UTC 
Hello,

I use LibreOffice for DTP tasks and frequently use a two column frame in Writer for newsletters. I would prefer to use Draw as I find it easier to manage page elements using Draw rather than Writer. For me it would be extremely useful if Draw included Writer's frame functionality (i.e. in Writer Insert>Frame...) particularly as Draw's text boxes do not support multiple text columns.

Regards,

Daniel Nesbitt
