Description:
Use macro to change writing mode of a Shape textbox. Comparing the text inside
the shape without a textbox, the results are different.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open the attached document. There are two shapes. One has the textbox
attached and the other doesn't.
2.Insert following Basic code as a macro and execute it.




Sub Main
  Dim oDrawPage As Variant
  Dim oObj1 As Variant
  Dim oObj2 As Variant
  Dim oObj3 As Variant
  Dim oObj4 As Variant
  Dim nTextWritingMode As Long

  oDrawPage = ThisComponent.getDrawPage()
  oObj1 = oDrawPage.getByIndex(0)

  oObj1.TextWritingMode = 2
  msgbox  "WritingMode:" & oObj1.TextWritingMode 
    oObj2 = oDrawPage.getByIndex(1)

  oObj2.TextWritingMode = 2
  msgbox  "WritingMode:" & oObj2.TextWritingMode 
End Sub

Actual Results:
The text in the textbox stays left-to-right.

Expected Results:
The text in the textbox should be top-to-down (TB-RL).


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
