To say it is "a bit spread out among several menu items" is a nice way of saying that it currently is more a reflection of the inner workings of Scribus ;) This is one of the issues that need to be sorted out on the way to 1.6.0, i.e., moost of it needs to become part of the Style Editor. Personally, I wouldn't waste too much time on documenting this feature yet. It won't stay that way, if sanity prevails.
