Hello, And first of all big thanks to all who work on this very nice piece of software.
Now, unfortunatelly I have some problems :-( 1. I cannot get Scribus to run properly when I use the OpenBox v. 3.1 window manager. Presently I do not know if it is Scribus or OpenBox, because: a) while with other WMs I have no similar problems b) I have no problems with OpenBox and other Qt-applications If I start Scribus and use OpenBox the main window of the application pops up but then nothing else works. For instance, instead of menus I get grey rectangels. Starting Scribus from an xterm window reveals error messages like the ones in the attached file. The next points refer at using Scribus with another WM (e.g. icewm), with which it works. 2. I like to use mm as length units. After setting this, the values on the vertical ruler are not set correctly, they are 10 times smaller. 3. The numbers on the horizontal ruler are never complete. The upper part is missing. It looks like they are not redrawn properly after the little red arrow passes over. 4. During the resize of a box (for text or image) intermediate positions of the box frame are persistent on the screen until I release the mouse button and the final box is drawn. This looks very ugly :-( even if it is not critical. 5. Scribus seems relativelly slow. E.g. slower than OpenOffice v. 1.1 Impress when I try to do the same thing: an A0-poster. Actually I discovered Scribus while looking for WSYIWYG software to prepare posters for conferences under Linux. Finally, system information: Soft: Slackware 9.1-based Qt 3.2.1-mt gcc 3.2.3 libc 2.3.2 X 4.3 with gatos drivers Hard: ACER TravelMate 529TXV laptop 850 MHz P-III 384 MB RAM ATI Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x graphics chip 8 MB graphics RAM Here I finish :-) Best regards, Serban Udrea -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
