Hi all,
I have a problem with images path manipulation in scribus 1.0. I think the
best method to explain it is with an example.
My document path was /home/david/documents
I create a scribus document in that location. Add an image from
/usr/share/icons/something.png.
In the document the reference to that image was
../../../usr/share/icons/something.png. It was ok as relative path from the
document location.
My problem is when I copy or send to scrapbook. The path was modified and now
is relative to my home, ../../usr/share/icons/something.png. As a result,
when pasted, the image was lost.
Other example
If I collect for output a document, as example to /home/david/test, all the
image paths are well transformed to only the image name. That's perfect for
me, but if I send to scrapbook, the images apeared as test/imagename. Again
relative to my home.
I have configured in general preferences the path of Documents, to the
location of my files, but the path of copied images, remains relative to my
home.
I hope it can help to solve that problem. If not only affected me :-)
I want to congratulate all the people involved in this 'so interesting
program'.
As suggestion, if it has not been indicated before. When edit text in a
textbox, all the text was updated as typed, making it really slow with a lot
of text. I think that updating only the actual line can realy speed up to a
perfect speed.
Thans again to all people.
Bye
