Bug ID: 150074
Summary: Sidebar hides character properties for many multi
object selections
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.3.4.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Draw
Assignee: [email protected]

Hello all,
The sidebar has an area to edit the character properties (font, step size,
etc.).
Unfortunately, for certain objects that are part of a multiple selection, the
sidebar hides the character properties area as soon as it becomes part of a
multiple selection. This is despite the fact that the character properties are
displayed for such an object in a single selection.
Please open the attached test kit to reproduce the behavior:
- Select the MetaFile object.
Note that the chararacter properties ARE displayed.
- Select the cube 3D object.
Note that the chararacter properties ARE displayed.
- Select the text fields and the Draw Shape.
Note that the chararacter properties ARE displayed.
- Now select all objects.
Note that the chararacter properties are NOT displayed. This happens as soon as
either the MetaFile or the cube 3D object became part of a multi object
selection.
I would like to emphasize here that this bug extremely affects usability in
some cases. For example, when importing a PDF into Draw, it often happens that
you have to replace the unavailable fonts with other fonts.
This can usually be done quite easily by pressing CTRL+a and then changing the
font for all objects at once in the sidebar (in the character properties).
However, this bug prevents exactly this from working in some cases, because the
character properties are hidden.
