[scribus] scribus Digest, Vol 27, Issue 14

[Murray Strome]

Thanks for these suggestions. Unfortunately, these were not too helpful. However, a later response from Gregory Pittman gave a few (somewhat cumbersome) methods to find the information. He also suggested that I file a "Feature Request" which I will do.

Hi,

If you hide the image, ie, Right Click->Preview settings->Un tick "Image Visible" you will be left with some details of the image.

If you want the full path, you need to hone your regex skills and extract out all the PFILE stuff, here is a little program that may work for you

#!/usr/bin/perl

open (my $SLA, "<", "Document-1.sla") or die "Can't open file for reading $!\n";

while (<$SLA>){
my $line = $_;
if ($line =~ /PFILE="(.*)" PFILE2.*/){print "$1\n"}

}

or, if you are one of the lucky users of 1.3.7, go to extra > manage images and you will get all the information you may want about your images!
