I am running libreoffice-draw 1:6.4.2-0ubuntu3 on an amd64 cpu under
Ubuntu 20.04.  The desktop mgr is gnome-flashback 3.36.1-1ubuntu1

I want to change the properties of text in a textbox, but cannot see the
"tools" menu, and so cannot make sub- and super-scripts, bold, etc.

Also, drawings created in my previous Draw (in Ubuntu 16.04) don't
import correctly - especially text objects.  For example, sub- and
super-scripts don't import well - instead I see lots of solid black
triangles with white exclamation points.

I rummaged around the web looking for solutions but found mainly old bug
reports and no useful resolutions, and the "DrawGuide 7.1" under "Text
Formatting" only refers to toolbars that do not appear on my screen


Why, oh why, have you made things so very complicated?

I  understand that it is in the nature of Developers to develop, but how
about (like gnome-flashback) giving the option of a slightly less
capable "retro-interface" so that users don't have to fight their way
through myriad changes (and bugs) to use the new version (which I
haven't figured out how to avoid).  It would greatly assist our
productivity.

Happy to discuss this further.

Best Regards,
