IMO this user interface part of scribus needs care
because lot of users dont understand it.

I created a bug report around about the unclear labels
and the unclear user interface for "preferences" and "settings".
It includes a couple of solution propositions.

see : http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=13339

Can somebody explain me why this report has been closed ?
