I'm seeing a lot of No.5 with Scribus 1.1.0. I'm used to pasting a lot of text, or linking, into one frame, then making the others and making the links. I have to have more frames in Scribus because from I can see I cant have more than one column per frame. Editing the text (eg, setting bolds on headings within the text becomes a big nightmare. When I click in a second box, the cursor returns to the beginning of the text box before I can type anything to correct text.
Any ideas? Craig On Thu, 2003-09-04 at 00:02, Simon Munton wrote: > Hi > > I've come across a few problems whilst using scribus 1.0.1. > > 1.
