        http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28190568/disable-warning-message-in-scribus

        
        

        
        Can someone answer this (via stackoverflow instead of here)

        

        > When importing a svg file to the DTP programme "Scribus" it
        shows a warning message (with just one OK-button), that has to
        be confirmed to go on. This stops my Python Script from working.

        

        >So I need a possibility to either confirm the message or -
        even better - to stop Scribus from showing this message.
        (something like the "Application.DisplayAlerts = False" in Excel
        VBA)

        

        >A possible solution would be to send an "Enter" command
        using sendkeys, but I don't like that because the command could
        miss the target.

    dialogs when running scripts.

If he is using Scribus 1.5, after http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=12774 all of the dialogs should go through ScMessageBox, which currently tests ScCore->usingGUI().
Could something expose ScribusCore::m_UseGUI or a new flag to the scripter?
