The new non-permanent sidebars have no background color set.
I've found a workaround that works for me. I've added this to ~/.config/scribus-9999/stylesheet.css:
ads--CAutoHideDockContainer {
  qproperty-autoFillBackground: 1;
}

Thanks to all who brought the knowledge about stylesheet.css back to my mind!

I managed to get like this, but there was some glitch where I think I had to save the first style before I could set the second style to level 2.

My Scribus is set to Swedish, but I think it is possible to understand anyway.

Windows / Aanpassen van de werkbalken vo...
Last post by Denise - November 23, 2025, 06:15:36 PM
Ik ben een slechtziende gebruiker en heb recent Scribus 1.6.4 gedownload. Helaas ondervind ik een probleem met de werkbalken in Scribus. De werkbalken zijn erg klein, en ik kan de grootte niet aanpassen, zelfs niet via de standaardinstellingen. Dit maakt het voor mij moeilijk om goed te werken in het programma.

Wat ik heb geprobeerd:

Ik heb geprobeerd de zoominstellingen aan te passen, maar dat beïnvloedt de werkbalken niet.

Ik heb geen optie gevonden om de werkbalk groter te maken in de voorkeuren of instellingen.

Mijn vraag is:

Is er een manier om de werkbalk in Scribus groter te maken?

Is er een toegankelijkheidsinstelling in Scribus die kan helpen bij het vergroten van de werkbalk voor slechtzienden?

Systeeminformatie:

Besturingssysteem: [Windows/macOS/Linux]

Scribus-versie: 1.6.4 (gedownload van de officiële website)

Ik waardeer alle hulp en suggesties!




I am a visually impaired user and recently downloaded Scribus 1.6.4. Unfortunately, I am experiencing a problem with the toolbars in Scribus. The toolbars are very small, and I cannot adjust their size, even through the default settings. This makes it difficult for me to work properly in the program.

What I have tried:

I have tried adjusting the zoom settings, but that does not affect the toolbars.

I have not found an option to enlarge the toolbar in the preferences or settings.

My question is:

Is there a way to enlarge the toolbar in Scribus?

Is there an accessibility setting in Scribus that can help enlarge the toolbar for the visually impaired?

System information:

Operating system: [Windows/macOS/Linux]

Scribus version: 1.6.4 (downloaded from the official website)

I appreciate any help and suggestions!

I am a new user of scribus.  I need to prepare a print job on a label which is in the shape of a watch.  I want to set the bleed line but the bleed line comes out only cover the rectangular part (i.e. not the watch but only the strap).  How can I tell the software the shape I actually wish to print?  Thanks for your advice.

As you can see I figured out the first level, but I cannot figure out to do the second level with indent ans small roman numerals as numbering...

Look for the columns and indentation section, you may  need to click to expand it doe the options. You can adjust "margins" inside a text frame from there.

Sorry, my bad! I missed you were talking about a text box in a text box. I meant image in text box. It would be great if there would also be an easy setting for that.
This will give a quick work around, just add a stroke to the text frame and make it transparent. It has some limits as the stroke is added inward and outward from the image edge.

I hope that this

will solve the issue in most "simple" cases...

hi amair

you may store frames in different sizes (with the increased contour line) in the scrapbook and use them in your layout.
unfortunately you can't just resize them as scribus doesn't resize the offset in a sane way. it keeps the offset at the same percentage instead of the same absolute value. (as one would like to see...)
i filed a feature request a couple of years ago, but no one is interested in it – i got no reaction.
