Hi All
Very new to Scribus (3 days) and trying to get image and text frames to snap to guides - no success so far - objects snap fine - 'page' - snap to grid and guides is checked - must be doing something wrong - can anyone help olease?

thanks
Phil

a.l.e

if the snapping to guide is active, the frames should snap to the guides.
i don't see what could go wrong...

can you show a sample document that does not work for you?

for most documents, you should probably not activate the grid.

Hi, I'm new to Scribus as well and was wondering the same thing.

Check under your PAGE menu to see if the Snap to Guides/Grid options are ticked, depending on your needs. Ticking this fixed snapping for me.

I'm new to Scribus, and design software in general. I was having trouble as well, but after playing with it, I found I just needed to pull the frame close enough to the guides in order for it to "snap". Realized I was confusing "fit" and "snap".
