Hi All, I'll put my vote in for having the sample text insert back in the context menu. As a "non-pro" user, inserting sample text is something I always do with a new document, and the context menu, IMHO, is the most intuitive place to have it. As a new Scribus user, and also new to DTP, a few months ago, I probably wouldn't have found this feature were it not in the context menu (or even realised such a feature existed).
