            Bug ID: 153990
           Summary: Can't change object direction from sidebar if not in
                    text-editing mode
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Create a new presentation, and select one of the textboxes on the default first
slide you get. Now have a look at the "Properties" sidebar, under the
"Paragraph" category.

You'll notice that the alignment buttons - Left, Center, Right, Justify - are
enabled; but the _direction_ buttons - LTR, RTL - are disabled. They should not
be!

At the moment, you can only use them if you double-click the textbox, entering
edit mode.

This is particularly problematic when you're selecting multiple objects, since
you can never be in edit mode for more than one of them at a time!

Notes:

1. You _can_ change the direction using Format | Paragraph.
2. The disabled direction buttons don't show the current object's direction,
i.e. none of them will be pressed outside of edit mode. Should I file this as a
separate bug?
