Description Ajc 2011-12-29 02:01:16 UTC
my 10 & 12 year old daughters use LibreOffice as their main program.

I've just shown them how to use text boxes, and one comment they made was, that they were unable to use the "format paintbrush" to quickly format text.

so please could you add this as a request for the next release.

allow 'format paintbrush' to format text within text boxes

thx

Ajc
- brilliant product, keep up the excellent work

Thanks for new idea
Format works for all textbox at once. If needed formatting each word of text differently using format paintbrush, use Insert->Frame instead of textbox.

I have verified that this is not the case in 3.5.2.3 or 3.7 latest build. I'm going to mark as RESOLVED. If this isn't resolved for you please reopen the bug and provide an attachment to show the problem.

When you say text box I'm assuming you mean INSERT -> FRAME

Thanks for reporting and for your kind words about LO. We're always striving to make it better
Comment 3 sasha.libreoffice 2012-07-06 04:32:01 UTC
originally it was about tool "Text" from toolbar "Drawing"
Comment 4 Ajc 2012-07-06 04:46:33 UTC
yep it was about a text box and formatting text inside the text box, rather
than a frame ... however, now that we are aware of that option, we've
started using that instead ... thx
