Languages, Translation and Localisation / Re: String Freeze Announcement...
Last post by MrB - January 12, 2025, 11:45:16 AMThe release contains the latest files from Transifex as exported from the tx command. If you don't use those sed conversion lines (or some other regex replacement tool), the ts file will not work and give you a bad qm file, or none at all. You need to extract the ts file from Transifex, then run the string replacements, then convert to qm.
However I can see that some translations are not downloading from Transifex for some reason. There's no technical reason for that being the case that I can see. Very weird. The strings are not even in the ts file. Eg Number of Pages on the New Document Dialog

Last post by StephanP - January 12, 2025, 10:57:07 AMUhmmm, sadly I don't speak sed.
What does this mean in mere Transifex terms or Windows search & replace terms?
Yet, the 1.6.3 release IS missing the latest Dutch translations, which I think had been completed in time.

Scripts and Plugins / Re: Is there a way to delete a...
Last post by dtribby - January 12, 2025, 07:39:33 AMDid the new function to delete a paragraph style make it into Scribus version 1.6.3? I don't see it in the "For Developers/Scripter API/Creating & Manipulating Styles" section of Scribus Help for 1.6.3.
In the script, I tried
deleteParagraphStyle(style)
but got the "name ... is not defined" error.

Last post by MrB - January 11, 2025, 02:56:41 PMI just checked my dmg file for Mac OS for 1.6.3 and it has a working Dutch translation. I think what you're seeing is that transifex exported ts files are not perfect and need some transformation before use. This is what I do.
Code Select
sed -i~ $'s:<?xml version="1.0" ?><!DOCTYPE TS><TS language="\(.*\)" version="2.1">:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>\\\n<!DOCTYPE TS>\\\n<TS version="2.1" language="\\1">:' $TS_DIR/*.ts
sed -i~ $'s:<?xml version="1.0" ?><!DOCTYPE TS><TS version="2.1" language="\(.*\)">:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>\\\n<!DOCTYPE TS>\\\n<TS version="2.1" language="\\1">:' $TS_DIR/*.ts
sed -i~ 's:<translation type="unfinished"/>:<translation type="unfinished"></translation>:' $TS_DIR/*.ts

Hi Craig,
Could it be that something has gone wrong with incorporating the updated languages into 1.6.3?
Even after manually importing a brand new scribus.nl.qm file that I mannually built from the ts file I downloaded from transifex I get a New Document dialog full of English language.

Showcase / November - My first book.
Last post by Irishlostboy - January 11, 2025, 07:35:47 AMHi all. I just want to post here to say thank you to the guys who made Scribus. I used it to layout my first book, a collection of 30 short stories, one for each day of November. The printer had zero difficulties in taking the PDF and printing it. I printed 80 copies mostly for my friends and the artists who I hired to illustrate the stories. There will be a few copies showing up in bookshops in Berlin, Frankfurt, and Galway in the near future, but that is about as far as my reach extends.

User Interface / Re: Indigo UI: Outline Palette
Last post by a.l.e - January 10, 2025, 07:35:37 PMPersonally, I feel that with that many icons on the right side. the list gets busy and there is a risk to reduce its usefulness.
If only the items that do not print or are locked are marked as such, then they would stick out.
On the other side, it's also true that with your proposal, it would be easier to switch the state of multiple items that are listed close to each other.
I wonder a bit what would be most appreciated by the users.
A topic that I think has been discussed in the past, is a button to switch between a page and a document view.
Also, something I stumbled upon, while looking for something completely different:
https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=13781
After several years, I'm still convinced that deselecting the current item should not make the view in the outline jump around...
But I understand that it's not trivial to make the behavior obvious in every use case.
I think that it would be useful to create a new ticket and link it to the numerous ones that already exist to have an overview of all the wishes that have already been expressed....
