--- Comment #6 from Balázs Varga <[email protected]> ---
I just checked it without the mentioned patch:
(https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/171621)

1: Open the bugdoc file
2: Without the above mentioned patch, the shape/textbox ("THE ALEXANDER
FAMILY") is visible after the file open on Linux.
3: Right click on the shape/textbox ("THE ALEXANDER FAMILY") and select
"Text...".
4: On the "Text" tab uncheck "Resize shape to fit text" option and click OK.
5: Now Right click on the shape/textbox ("THE ALEXANDER FAMILY") again and
select "Position and Size...".
6: On the "Position and Size" tab modify/reduce the "Width" of the shape from
'~6,47 cm' to '~5,80 cm' (or less) then click OK.
7: The text from the shape/textbox ("THE ALEXANDER FAMILY") disappeared.

Consequence: It is probably not a regression of this patch, but more like this
patch "brought an older issue up to the surface" (maybe a Linux rendering
issue), because even if the shape size is smaller then what the text size
require, the texts should still be visible (just like on Windows).
This is only happening on Linux - I checked on windows with the same steps and
the shape width was reduced nicely and the text was still visible. (even if
with a very small width.)

Fyi with the patch the shape is also there just not visible because of the
above mentioned problem. So the above steps reproducable with the patch as
well.
For that, first need to select the shape from the Sidebar - Navigator then it
will be selectable on the sheet and then right click on the corner/edge of
shape frame and select the "Position and Size...". 
In that "Position and Size..." dialog no need to do anything just click cancel
and the text will be visible again. AFter that if we go through on these steps
starting from the point 3 we will see the same issue.
