Description helpman 2001-08-14 07:29:54 UTC 
When selecting a text-box in 'edit' mode (i.e. the cursor is inside the text-
box, modifying the actual text), the area border is shown. When selecting the 
same box (or more than one object) in non-edit mode, the border disappears. 
Additionally, only the 'surrounding square' of a group of selected objects gets 
the handles, so it is not possible to determine how many objects the user 
actually has selected
Objects would be much easier to handle if the box (or handles) would still be 
visible round each object, even if the user selects more than one. 
Border/Handle style could be different for objects of a selection group and the 
group handles themselves.

Good idea.
Comment 5 falko.tesch 2003-09-26 15:11:00 UTC 
Restated for technical reasons:
When selecting a text-box in 'edit' mode (i.e. the cursor is inside
the text-box, modifying the actual text), the area border is shown.
When selecting the same box (or more than one object) in non-edit
mode, the border disappears. 
Additionally, only the 'surrounding square' of a group of selected
objects gets the handles, so it is not possible to determine how many
objects the user actually has selected
Objects would be much easier to handle if the box (or handles) would
still be visible round each object, even if the user selects more than
one. 
Border/Handle style could be different for objects of a selection
group and the group handles themselves.

The target is reset to Office later, as the changed drawing layer is not a
keafeature for the Q.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
