Raster and Vector Graphics / [SOLVED] No way to see locatio...
Last post by jirib - January 08, 2025, 07:26:38 AM
Hi all,

it seems to me that there's no way to see full path of an image inside Scribus, or is it possible?

I have a SLA document with 'image/foo.pdf' (image).

xmllint --format Document-1.sla  | grep -i --color=always 'foo.pdf' | fmt -w80
    <PAGEOBJECT XPOS="519.528559055118" YPOS="20.001" OwnPage="0"
    ItemID="1119109185" PTYPE="2" WIDTH="419.527559055118"
    HEIGHT="595.275590551181" FRTYPE="0" CLIPEDIT="0" PWIDTH="1"
    PLINEART="1" LOCALSCX="1" LOCALSCY="1" LOCALX="0" LOCALY="0"
    LOCALROT="0" PICART="1" SCALETYPE="1" RATIO="1" Pagenumber="0"
    PFILE="images/foo.pdf" IRENDER="0" EMBEDDED="0" path="M0
    0 L419.528 0 L419.528 595.276 L0 595.276 L0 0 Z" copath="M0 0 L419.528 0
    L419.528 595.276 L0 595.276 L0 0 Z" gXpos="519.528559055118" gYpos="20.001"
    gWidth="0" gHeight="0" LAYER="0" NEXTITEM="-1" BACKITEM="-1"/>


Steps:

- select an image frame
- right-click: Info - and I see

  Image
  foo.pdf
  Original PPI: 72 x 72
  ...

That is, I do not see the path. If I would have multiple directories with same filename, I might be confused where the used image is really located. The only way seems checking SLA source :-/

If there is not way, I would love to see either:
- full path in the above dialog, or
- a dialog where all used images of the document are listed; an example:
  * page X:
      * 1. <image path> - <image frame name>
    ...
      ...
  (Ideally with possibility to edit the both path of the image and name of the frame).

Your comments are appreciated. Thank you.

I wonder, are the "content properties" locked because the "content properties" window is open? "content properties" window is waiting for user input at all times while open and locking out scripts as it may cause a conflict?

try the script with the "content properties" window closed.

Not sure this is the solution. just speculation on mypart

To give a quick update on this ticket - what we have noticed is that scribus does not allow running multiple scripts simultanously

1st script - the plugin that we have created
2nd script - is loading Content Properties

If we dont close the Plugin, Content Properties stays locked. But closing the Plugin and loading it again from scripts is not a very user friendly solution. If anyone can suggest a work around for

1. How can we close the script by minimising or something like that
OR
2. A quicker way to load the Plugin using some keyboard shortcut or adding it in the menu toolbar icon

Thanks

I tested the export solution and that worked ... I have marked my question solved.
Thank you for the help.
Now I will be posting a question about export options.

Does the font used have the characters? Scribus can only use what is available in the font.

Hi,
I tried to insert a text with some Chinese characters, pinyin and other kind of characters, and the Chinese characters doesn't appear (instead, it's shown black frames).
It's possible to fix that?
Thanks

as in https://forums.scribus.net/index.php/topic,5785.0.html

# In a multi-page Scribus document:
# 1 Select the textbox containing one or more columns.
# 2 Enter the number of the last page where you want to sequentially copy this textbox.
# 3 Choose "Yes" if you want the text to flow continuously from the first textbox to the last.
# 4 Choose "Yes" if you want to maintain the textbox positions as they would be in a facing-page document.
