[Scribus] resizing graphics inside a frame - a novice question

[Pierre-Luc Auclair]

This is easy, three ways and they are all into the Properties palette, Image 
tab:
1. Set Y-Scale or X-Scale
2. Set Y-resolution or X-resolution
3. Use scale to frame

AFAIK you cannot scale it with your mouse yet, but you can move it from within 
the frame by double clicking on it.
