Hi
I'm having lots of problems that I've never seen before. I'm using
Ubuntu Gutsy with Scribus 1.3.3.10 from Malex's repos.
The problems I'm getting are :-
* Lots of random crashes
* when I edit text using the Story Editor, I get different
characters than the ones I type in. This is really annoying !!
* you can't delete blank lines in the Story Editor
* Text styles sometimes go weird using the above.
* The text you see when the app starts ie 'checking fonts' etc, is
much smaller than it used to be.
I think this might be related to when I recently installed qt4-config to
try and get the menu and layout sizes bigger (they had gone to a 9pt
size rather than the usual 12pt size). Then I installed qt3-config
realising this was the correct one.
I've tried deleting the .scribus folder and re-installing scribus, and
also purging and reinstalling the qtconfig too, but all seems but the
same as before. I also have scribus-ng installed if that makes any
difference, but mainly use 1.3.3.10 for work.
I hope someone can help as its really driving me mad !
