I have imported an original VBA form (the design) into Libre Office (Version 4.4.2.2) . However, some form controls are hidden in the designer mode, but are clearly there in the preview/test mode.

Does anyone know, how I can edit the "hidden" controls or make them visible again?
See the two attached screenshots: In the frame/groupbox Options and in the frame Stored tables, the inside controls are missing. From what I think, they are kind of hidden under the groupbox/frame. I haven't figured a way to bring them back to front.
To import the dialog in Libre Office paste the code into a new .xdl file and import the dialog file into a macro. Dialog *.xdl content

In case anyone else struggles with this problem, I just figured it out, why it wasn't displayed, the control was marked as frame and not as titledbox. Just replace frame with titledbox.

<dlg:frame dlg:style-id="6" dlg:id="frmStorage" dlg:tab-index="6" dlg:left="277" dlg:top="4" dlg:width="149" dlg:height="252">  
...
</dlg:frame>

Afterwards reimport the dialog. Et voila, the hidden fields are also shown in the designer. Groupbox content shown correct
