HOWTOs and Documentation
Is there any documentation for this tool ?

Yes the ooextras.sourceforge.net project has the document : Tutorial on drawing objects .

Instead of single-clicking the tool, double-click it. It will keep it selected between operations.

Yes, OOoMacros has a document: Danny's Draw Power Tools. This document is a Draw document with macros to create drawings of complex shapes that are difficult to draw by hand. It also includes documentation. Danny's Draw Power Tools represents a significant amount of work and is a non-trivial project. It is also a work in progress, so check at the OOoMacros project for updates.

Create your curve or freeform line, while this is still selected type in the text you wish to fit to the line. Now select “Format” => “Fontwork” to make the required adjustments.

The documentation project has an excellent document ( “How To Compose a Document with Simple Geometric Shapes, to Change their Attributes (color, size, position, ...) and to Print the Result” ) and a FAQ .
