            Bug ID: 126853
           Summary: Make names of text boxes and other objects easier
                    accessible
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.0.4 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium

Description:
Hello,

I wrote a library that can fill odt files with content. Therefor I work with
the object ids or object names of text boxes and other elements. Table ids are
easy to edit by right click and properties, but for example textbox ids are
difficult to find. I use the tabbed bar and have to show the menu first, then
select "Format" and open the "Name" dialogue. It would be great if the name
would be visible in the properties sidebar or a dialogue window, accessible via
"Right-click".

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a textbox in a document.
2. In tabbed view, choose the "Menubar" icon.
3. Select the box and click on "Format"
4. Select "Name" from the menu.

Actual Results:
A quite difficult way to change the name of a box.

Expected Results:
A easier way via Right-click or the properties sidebar.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
