Text Box Consolidation

Combine two or more selected text boxes into one.

To access this command...

From the menu bar:

Choose Shape - Consolidate Text when two or more text boxes are selected.

From the context menu:

Choose Consolidate Text when two or more text boxes are selected.


Text box consolidation joins several text boxes into a single text box, enabling text reflow inside the resulting box.

tip

The Consolidate Text command is especially useful for editing PDF documents with LibreOffice Draw.


The function inspects the text fragments to see if they end in sentence-ending punctuation. If not, then the next text box's content is appended to it instead of starting a new paragraph. You must manually fix paragraphing, and set paragraph properties after consolidation.
