Pehaps this is easy, but I am a bit confused when it comes to defing the language of my text. I have chosen my language for the hyphenator in the Document preferences. I also see that is is possible to choose a language for my text in the properties box (in the tab ?Text?), but not in the style composer and not in the Scrapbook.
When I import my new text, it shows nothing in the properties box. Does this mean that it is not possible to choose the standard language for new text, and I have to explicitly change this after the import, or is this a bug? Further I also see, that I have to choose the language for each text frame, and have not found a way to do this for the whole text at once, but perhaps I am overlooking something? And ought not it be possible to choose the language per style, that means I can define a style and say that this is english, another style of the same sort, but now german. With this implemented multilanguage support would be even better, or am I missing out something here? The point of all this would then be to have my text hyphenated the right way :-) Both the composer and the scrapbook could then profitate from having this capability too. I see a rework is scheduled for the hyphenation part, perhaps the above mentioned issues are in it? I found these related bugs: http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=970 http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=1130 http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=1108 BTW: I can confirm that the hyphenation doesnt learn, but asks the same word over and over. And it asks not only for the words on the end of the line, but *all* words in the Text, with long texts this makes a lot of work. I also second 1108, it should be possible to keep a textfile where my new words are stored (Page maker does this, and uses ~to mark the hyphenations points, it even uses susequent ~s to say wich are most important. Something to implement?), I have such a file from Pagemaker, and it would save me work to use it. If wished I can add some of this to the relevant bugreports. ... I also second http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=1137 by the way, although I found another way through this :-) Best regards Axel Bojer
