The workaround to get visual property setting of paragraphs:
1) start ReportDesigner with new report
2) xml page
3) locate the band you want to work with, say detail.
4) copy/paste the following inside the detail band's <Objects></Objects> tag:
<FrameSet>
<Objects>
<Paragraph></Paragraph>
</Objects>
</FrameSet>
5) go back to the visual designer page.
6) click on the rectangle that's appeared in the detail band.
7) note that you can see the FrameSet and the Paragraph in the object tree, and
that
you can edit properties of both of them now.
