Package: scribus Version: 1.3.3.13.dfsg~svn20081228-2 Severity: normal It is impossible to move frames around on a page and get them aligned and sized, using the page grid.
When trying to resize a frame, by chance it's either moved or resized, though the mouse pointer changes to the move icon. Then the frame snaps to something, but not in any reasonable way to a grid which would allow you to align the frames evenly buy just moving them around and sizing them with the mouse. Fumbling around with the "Align and Distribute" window is no alternative. Using a grid of guides doesn't work, either: I ended up not being able to move the frames to where I wanted them at all. The inablilty to move and align and size frames equally makes Scribus pretty much unusable. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32.1-server (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: lang=de...@euro, lc_ctype=de...@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages scribus depends on: ii ghostscript 8.71~dfsg-4 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript/PDF ii ghostscript-x [gs-gpl] 8.71~dfsg-4 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript/PDF ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.21-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcups2 1.4.3-1 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.2-9 GCC support library ii libjpeg62 6b-16.1 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liblcms1 1.18.dfsg-1.2+b1 Color management library ii libqt3-mt 3:3.3.8b-6 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libstdc++6 4.4.2-9 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libtiff4 3.9.2-3+b1 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-3 X11 client-side library ii libxml2 2.7.7.dfsg-2 GNOME XML library ii python 2.5.4-9 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-tk 2.6.5-1 Tkinter - Writing Tk applications ii python2.5 2.5.5-6 An interactive high-level object-o ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages scribus recommends: ii cups-bsd [cupsys-bsd] 1.4.3-1 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii gsfonts-x11 0.21 Make Ghostscript fonts available t ii xfonts-scalable 1:1.0.1-1 scalable fonts for X Versions of packages scribus suggests: pn scribus-doc <none> (no description available) ii scribus-template 1.2.4.1-2 additional scribus templates -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
