Nope, I haven't.

I took a couple of snapshots to better understand what I am talking about:

This is clearly some sort of bug, but I don't really care about that
now, since this is something I have to finish in vey near future as a
deadline is approaching. I need to resolve this somehow.

I tried installing scribus-trunk and the files open just fine with it
but for some reason that is really really slow on my machine.
Selecting an object takes 3 seconds and so on. So not very usable.

To re-iterate what has happened:

0. I am using Scribus 1.4. on Linux Mint. (Scribus Version 1.4.3, 20
July 2013, Build ID: C-C-T-F-C1.12.14, Using Ghostscript version 9.07)
1. I have multiple ~20 page documents with 1000+ objects (text,
polygons) on all of them
2. I went thru every document (preflight check) and fixed all problems
and exported all to PDFs and closed them
3. Now two of the documents appear completely blank when I open them.
4. I can't add new objects, either. They are invisible. I can create a
polygon but it stays invisible no matter what.
5. I can open the documents on scribus-trunk but that works so slowly
that it is unusable.
