            Bug ID: 166004
           Summary: When editing text in textbox, can't format the box via
                    menus
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 25.8.0.0 alpha0+
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Suppose I insert a textbox, and am editing the text. I'm not done editing, but
I already want to format a border for my textbox (e.g. so that, after I leave
it, I'll have a good idea of where it is exactly; the text won't fill it up so
well).

So, I navigate to Format > Text Box and Sape... submenu on the menubar, and -
find that "Position and Size...",  "Line..." and "Area..." are all grayed out.

I don't think they should be. There is no ambiguity AFAICT regarding which box
and which shape. It's just LibreOffice "sticking its head in the sand"
pretending it doesn't know where I am.
