<div dir="ltr">As you know Mr VOX has start project to make
scribus support complex text layout. Therefore I am willing to
work in his plan that he posted in githup in the following

<div dir="ltr">To complete the project, the first stage was to
separate textlayout from storytext. So I started to separate
all functions that related to glyphs. <br>

<div dir="ltr">GlyphLayout* getGlyphs(int pos);<br>
const GlyphLayout* getGlyphs(int pos) const;<br>
LayoutFlags flags(int pos) const;<br>
bool hasFlag(int pos, LayoutFlags flag) const;<br>
void setFlag(int pos, LayoutFlags flag);<br>
void clearFlag(int pos, LayoutFlags flag);<br>

<div dir="ltr">These functions were in storyText but I am moving<br>

<div dir="ltr">If any one have thought about the process I want
a feedback. For example if there are any other function that

personally, what i can suggest you to do, is to submit not too big
patches that<br>
<br>
- go in the direction mentioned by andreas vox,<br>
- improve the current situation,<br>
- without changing the behavior of scribus.<br>
- if possible and/or necessary, explain why you think the change
complies with andreas' plans<br>
<br>
so:<br>
- try to create the smallest patch that is useful and does not break
scribus!<br>
- wait for it to be included in svn<br>
- then propose the next patch.<br>
<br>
behind the scenes you can keep on working in your branch...<br>
<br>
good luck!<br>
