[Scribus] Styles in 1.3.4

[Thorsten Zörner]

Dear list,

I understand, that in Scribus 1.3.4 some things are done differently.
I don't expect Scribus data to be downward compatible... but upward  
compatible I'd do.

When I open a file saved with my old 1.3.3.9 I notice one disturbing  
thing:
Some texts have been moved around, partially moved away from colored  
objects underneath.
Also, when I try to change these texts with the Script Editor, saving  
them back
changes the letter size to 15something thousand pt instead of 7pt...
so I only read the first line and see the crossed to box bottom-right  
to indicate there is more text somewhere.
To me it seems that this is both due to the new Style Management.
I have also noticed that the new Style dialogue has plenty more  
Styles than I've ever defined...
so which are "mine" and which shall I leave alone?

How can I treat old files to work with the new Styles?
Is there a defined procedure or best practice for that?

Cheers,
Thorsten.
