Please, edit your question to improve the description of your goal. Don’t forget to mention OS name and LO version.

The question has word “text box”. Do you really mean a text box graphical object created with a drawing tool? What is your intent with such an object? How does it relate to the rest of the document? A title? A caption for something else?

Use frames instead of a text box,


`Insert>Frame>Frame`.

Don’t use a text box (Insert → Text Box).

Use a text frame instead (Insert → FrameFrame Interactively or Frame…).
