I had been using Scribus Vers 1.3 since I downloaded it in about December.
Now I just switched to:
Scribus Version 1.4.0.rc3
27 March 2011
Build ID: C-*-T-*-C1.8.6-Windows
Using Ghostscript version 9.02
The strangest thing is the UNDO option is never available to me.
I normally just hit control-Z, but I noticed it was never undoing anything.
Then I looked and UNDO was grayed out on the EDIT menu, and also the tool bar icon was grayed out.
After I discovered this, I went to FILE->PREFERENCES->DOCUMENT and started fiddling the undo/redo options there. I think the default was 10 or 20 undos. I tried setting it to zero, then I tried fifty. Nothing makes any difference.
If it matters, I am using Scribus under Windows 7 Starter.
And the documents I am editing were originally created under Scribus 1.3.xxx on a different computer.
I dont think it matters because I just opened/created a new document under my current computer and Scribus version, and still UNDO is greyed out.
I probably am just missing something stupid, so sorry.....
It's very hard to work without any UNDO capability!
