Convert between stickies to shapes and vice-versa

I have a bunch of stickies that I’d like to make into shapes (rectangles) so that I can resize them/remove authorship. Is there a way to do this besides copy and pasting text into a new shape?

I need this too! During a brainstorm you don’t want to worry much about formatting. After the brainstorm, I need to use different shapes in the flows / artefacts that result.
Stickies are only squares or (a particular type of) rectangle. It would be great to convert the content to a shape to have greater control over the shape without having to copy & paste.

Same here, could use this feature. Was trying to easily take a list of items and convert to several individual objects for a mindmap/object tree. The only solution was to convert the list to stickies, now I’m stuck with stickies and can’t convert to an object, like a square/rectangle.
