Colors can only be edited without a document open.  From the drop down edit menu, select colors and fills. You add or import the colors you need.

This answer does not apply to my question.

I have to make so many lines, that for each new line I want to pre-define its color and style etc. This is done in Document Setup > Itam Tools. But - as I wrote - the window does not give me the colors I need.

Select the line you wan to start with and press F2 (Properties). Window should open, and come to the top, about 2/3 down the window will be a drop open option colors.

I had a look and it is very well done. Thanks for sharing.

Will order the paper book - not because I need it, but because I am also teaching Scribus to our team. And this author knows his stuff.

The book is here on Amazon.de

Have a look at the "Attributes" feature. It exists in version 1.5.8 and probably earlier.

You can pre-define your custom attributes under Document Setup.

Then in your document, just right-click your object and click on Attributes. Then you can add your own attribute as needed. For example make one that is called "waits for OK from boss". Then maybe make it boolean and define for yourself that Value "1" is approved (already) by the boss and "0" is still waiting or refused by the boss.


I cannot tell you, where to quickly see a list of all objects with attribute "not-ready". Maybe just search throught the .sla XML file?

There is something about "Item Attribute Name" under Properties in the Table of Contents feature. Maybe you can indeed generate a "table" based on all objects that carry one of your custom tags. Need to read up, sorry.
