Title: 1.5.3 crashing entering text
Post by: LesCM19 on January 30, 2018, 02:18:39 PM
So I'm 25 pages into my 55 page document and Scribus has started returning to desktop if I copy text into the next text frame of the next chapter.
Saves of previously completed chapters do it too.

Any suggestions? Reinstall Scribus?

...and if I copy the text into the story editor, Scribus RTDs after saving & exiting story editor.

Well, it's stopped doing it now, so I suppose that's alright. Confused.  ::)

I had similar problems, got rid of styles, that helped, cleared tabs and did them new, also loaded file into 1.5.4 as it had stopped loading into 1.5.3 anyway mines all working again
could have been memory issue (Scribus and Me)

I had the same problem: program crashes when inserting a column break on a new line without text on it

I could not reproduce this problem on 1.4.6, but I've not done exhaustive testing.

works here with the latest 1.5.4svn...

this might have been fixed already...
can you try with a development snapshot?
(the place where you can get it, depends on your operating system)
