Hi Regina,

I think the two PNG graphics in the Writer Gallery John is referring to
are left and right curly braces. Both have the word "Callout" ("attached
descriptive text") drawn within the bitmap image, not editable text.

The F2 text addition facility you describe works for the Draw Gallery,
but not for the Writer Gallery and in both cases the word "Callout" in
the PNG graphic cannot be directly edited from within LO.

If I have understood John's original request correctly, "Insert -> Shape
-> Symbol Shapes" -> "Left Brace" or "Right Brace", then anchor,
position and size should satisfy his requirements.

Kind Regards
Dave
