The current idea is that typing one of the keys used for the typographic shortcuts (the arrows, <, >, ...) will start applying that formatting (no more applying of styles until the next time the shift-esc is pressed. Typing any other key will start searching for styles (and no access anymore to the typographic formatting).
By doing this, we could use all the best keys for applying the formatting, without having to fear about the shortcuts being already used for other things.

you can create a clip path in Gimp (or any other image editor of your choice), use an image format that supports it, and let Scribus use it (it's the last button in the text flow options).
Would that work for you?

QuoteAs a one liner. Scribus needs way too much mouse interaction and gets tiresome on repetitive tasks.
Quote from: a.l.e on October 16, 2025, 08:57:04 AMFrom the screenshot I see a few interesting things, about the way you're working!
It would be interesting to know more about how your work with Scribus, what you are liking, what you are missing and what you dislike!
One question from my side:
would a filter in the Scrapbook help you?
(i.e.: show all items containing a specific text; adding a tagging mechanism (with buttons on top to filter))
And I guess that when trying the new 1.7 / 1.8, you will appreciate the improvements Martin did in the editing of the nodes!
