I profess to know how I use Scribus, and I type<br>
text into the Story Editor or modify text flowed<br>
in from another source in the Story Editor. As I<br>
go along I may need to create or modify Styles,<br>
particularly when I flow in text from outside of<br>
Scribus.<br>
<br>
I am very pragmatic about rules, regulations and<br>
"best practices" as defined by others. What works<br>
works. What is convenient for the end user is<br>
convenient.<br>
<br>
Providing an exit into the Style<br>
Editor from the Story Editor with a return<br>
to the Story Editor upon exiting the Style<br>
Editor is to my mind a simple subroutine call<br>
and return. It doesn't handicap anyone, even<br>
A.L.E., who wants to use the program in a<br>
different way.<br>
<br>
Please?<br>
