<pre>Obviously, the text anchor (TA) overwrites the paragraph alignment (PA). And
doesn't it make sense given that you want to place the text at the lower right
border, for example, to not use left alignment?
The issue is not restricted to Impress. The text box works the same in Writer.
You can check "Full width" to retain control over the paragraph but I admit
this is not a clear workflow. First of all, we should disable PA commands if TA
is set. Second, "Full Width" could be renamed to "Use paragraph attributes" and
implemented as radio button together with "Use box anchor", or the like.
And we also need a better documentation. Neither online [1] nor offline makes
it clear what Text Anchor is.
Have I missed something, Mike?
