What are you using for desktop environment and window manager? I've seen this in KDE 3.2 beta 1 but not on KDE < 3.1.4 . The update to KDE 3.2 beta 2 eliminated the issue. With the same Qt 3.2.3 installed for KDE 3.2 beta, this issue does not show up at all with Blackbox, leading me to suspect it is a window manager bug triggered by Scribus. There ws a similar issue with metacity, which Franz worked around in Scribus itself. In the case of the metacity bug, I recall he triple checked the code for conformance to Qt specs. What he found was the window manager was not handling hints from Qt properly. Hope that helps, Peter
