Simple text is aligned differently and there is no option to add a text box to the shape added through the menu. 1. New Text Document. 2. Insert → Shapes → Rectangle and draw it. 3. Double click on rectangle or Enter if it is already selected. 4. Type something. Result: Text is centred horizontally. 5. Right click on rectangle. Result: No option to Add Text Box. 6. From the toolbar at top, open dropdown in Basic Shapes and select Rectangle and draw it. 7. Double click on rectangle or Enter if it is already selected. 8. Type something. Result: Text is aligned left. 9. Right click on rectangle. Result: Option to Add Text Box. Version: 4.4.3.2 Build ID: 88805f81e9fe61362df02b9941de8e38a9b5fd16
Reproduced. Win 7 Pro 64-bit Version: 5.0.0.0.alpha1+ (x64) Build ID: 6e78bf76f3a10b43475e1bd801bdcbb9ce62f668 TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2015-05-07_00:45:19 Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI)
I was testing something else and noticed that on the Drawing toolbar the Rectangle and the Basic Shapes Rectangle are now the same but the Rectangle from the menu is still as I reported.

*** Bug 94277 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
@Jay: Maybe you can change the commands in Insert->Shapes menu to the .uno:BasicShapes.* equivalents as much as possible to stop this confusion, so that the menu and the toolbar will have consistent behaviour? This will also benefit Bug 85227. I also noticed that the drawing toolbar has both types of shapes, with one of them hidden by default (e.g. both .uno:Rect and .uno:BasicShapes.rectangle). I find it very confusing to have two "Rectangle" buttons on one toolbar, where actually each one is doing something different. I suggest to simply remove the "dumb" variants (like .uno:Rect) completely from the toolbar, as the .uno:BasicShapes.* ones seems superior in many ways. Thanks in advance.

@Maxim: So do we want to backport this to 5.0?
(In reply to Yousuf (Jay) Philips from comment #10) > @Maxim: So do we want to backport this to 5.0? I hope so. Hard to believe there will be any regressions from the change of comment 8. What isn't clear to me is if such menu/toolbar changes are allowed in sense of the UI freeze. Any idea on that? Let me know, and I'll do the backport if needed.

Yes it is fine to backport as we are simply swapping one entry for another and no translation is involved.
Yousuf, The changes affect Impress, Calc, and Writer. Did you test them all? If not, please wait until Bug 95000 is bisected before backporting. Thanks!
