I'm concerned. I'm seeing this too. I've suspected paste issues in Scribus before but never sat down and looked into it. In the past I've blamed it on Acrobat Reader (which I was most often trying to paste from) as it's an old app with a lot of quirks. No such luck; I'm seeing your problem pasting from Mozilla and Evolution, both directly into a frame and via the story editor. No combination of select-to-copy or CTL-C copy and click-to-paste/CTL-V paste are working. I have definitely pasted content from xterms and (I think) from OO.o in the paste, however. In the story editor, Scribus registers the attempt to paste (the 'reload from frame' button is activated in response to a change, etc) but no content appears. The GUI does appear to flash or redraw, however. I will try to investigate this further, but unfortunately I'm still at work (yes, it _is_ 2:00am) so my ability to do so is limited. -- Craig Ringer
