Too bad.

Well, in the style gui dialog you can specifiy 'based on' for both character and paragraph styles.

Well, you can create hierarchies of styles. For example, you can create a "base" heading style specifying
'right aligned', 'Open Sans', 'underlined' and then sub- and subheadings with different font sizes, boldness
etc. That comes really handy if you need to change some aspect of the style (i.e. font family).
I think 'I really need to dig into the code and try to understand scribus' style handling. I fear my expectations
(shaped by FrameMaker, DSSL etc.) does not match scribus' style model at all.

Thanks, RalfD
