Hi Morten,

That was a good tip.  I have a file I started with 1.0.1, moved to
1.1.3, then 1.1.4 that crashed when I resized some picutres, but not
others.  I thought there might be something wrong with the pictures. I
let Scribus create a new .rc file and it's much more stable.  I haven't
done much with the file yet, but re-sized many of the pictures without
any crashes.  I'm using Mandrake 9.2.

Thanks,
Bob White
