I think you are confusing the text frame properties with the properties of the text in the frame. Does it work as you expect if you delete the text manually? I just did a quick test here using Scribus 1.5.2. In Preferences, text frame tool has default settings Arial Regular 12 pt Create text frame - it has default settings, Arial Regular 12 pt Change text options for frame - Broadway BT 16 pt Add 3 paragraphs of text Change text options (font) for text 1st para: Futura 2nd para: Times New Roman 3rd para: Calibri Leave edit mode by clicking outside frame Select frame (single click) Properties show Broadway BT 16 pt, but none of the text currently in the frame has that font. Enter edit mode (double click) Ctrl-A and delete all text Add new text Text is Broadway BT 16 pt This is exactly what I would expect. /Peter ___ Scribus Mailing List: scribus@lists.scribus.net Edit your options or unsubscribe: http://lists.scribus.net/mailman/listinfo/scribus See also: http://wiki.scribus.net http://forums.scribus.net
