You evidently do not know what I am talking about. The term on the Open

shapes that cannot have text inserted, which is what I was trying to do. I
don't know what their function is, but none of the articles that appeared
when I Googled the words you gave me has anything to do with them. My
comment was that ALL terms that appear in an Open Office toolbar should be
able to be found somewhere in your Help Index. The term TEXTSHAPES not
only does NOT appear in your Help Index - it does not appear ANYWHERE on
the internet! Why are you using a term in a toolbar that evidently does
not exist?
It exist on the internet:
http://www.openoffice.org/api/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/drawing/TextShape.html
http://sofia.cs.vt.edu/sofia-2114/api/reference/sofia/graphics/TextShape.html
I agree it should exist also in the help file and documentation.
As OpenOffice and the documentation is a non commercial product build
and maintained by volunteers
updates depend on the number of volunteers that are willing to invest
time and effort.
If you have some spare time feel free to take on this task.
By the way if you copy a Textshape into Draw you're able to insert text.
The result can be copied into a Word document.
Don't ask me why text can't be inserted in a Word document, it's
probably a bug

Working with a text document, on the "Gallery" page, under "New Themes"
you have an item called "Textshapes." I wanted to learn how to put text
inside of one, BUT THERE IS NO ITEM CALLED "TEXTSHAPES" IN YOUR "HELP"
INDEX! It seems to me that EVERY term that appears in your menus should
be
somewhere in the HELP index!
