Are there Scripter APIs for the following in 1.3.5svn ? - set font baseline shift - get text width for "selected text" (not for the entire text frame) - set font tracking - set character style
This in relation to the Chordpro import and chordsetting (http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=3408). I was wondering if we could do what has been requested by doing the following - - select each chord using and inclusive of the [ ] delimiters - Baseline Shift UP the selection by 100% - determine the text width for the selection - using this text width calculate and apply a suitable negative tracking for the closing ] delimiter so that the lyrics that go along the chord appear right below the chord I've tried doing this manually and it sort of works - so what we really need is a way to do this via a script - which is why the query regarding the scripter APIs I asked this question on IRC - and was redirected here. Also before posting this on the mailing list - I had submitted the same via the form on the website (http://www.scribus.net/?q=node/158/submission/73) - but looking at the archives of the mailing list - it didn't look as if what you submit on the form is sent to the mailing list. My apologies if that is not the case and this amounts to double posting.
