Re: [libreoffice-users] How to select a rectangle area and export only content (and not whole page) as *.png in Draw?

If the objects you want to export can be selected with the selection tool
(entirely) so it´s easy.
Select the objetcs and go to Export... then mark the box "Selection" just
below the "automatic extension" box....

But if the area you want to export it comprehends part of one or more object
and you can´t simply select the entire objects I think that may be an option
creating a rectangle over that area and use the "intersection" to create a
selection from it so you can select it the usual way as a single object.
