Convert text box into a shape

[SimonBo]

hi all, in affinity publisher v2 i accidentally converted a shape into a textbox, and i found out that it's an irreversible action, is there no way to convert the textbox into a shape?  Thank

An Undo operation immediately afterwards should usually do that by going one step back, or using the Save History With Document. - See related ...

• Using undo, redo and history

thanks for the reply, yes this would have been the best solution.  but is it really irreversible?

There are no functions to convert objects into Shapes (Rectangle, Ellipse, Triangle, etc.).

You can rasterise it to turn it into a pixel layer and then convert that to an image layer, if need be 

But the question is too vague to know if that will be useful or not
