Summary0011772: Choices in Preference > User Interface > Story Editor have some issues (broken/ambiguous)
DescriptionPreferences > User Interface > Story Editor has some issues:

1) "Font:" the font used for typing in the SE in Scribus's preferences window does't take immediate effect when changed. Sometimes when the font change is saved and Scribus is restarted, it will sometimes work (not reliably) the chosen font when you type in SE but the font will still be labeled the default Scribus font.

2) "Background Color" doesn't take in to effect unless Scribus is restarted

3) 'Use Smart Text Selection' needs a tooltip : "The default behavior when double-clicking on a word is to select the word and the first aftercoming space. "Smart" selection will select only the word, without the aftercoming space." (copied from http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Working_with_Story_Editor - thanks Kunda)

amof its not completely well recorded. Sometime, the font is recorded, but not the "bold / italic / regular" spec. It requires to close the preference window and reopen it to see what has / has not been recorded.

Issues persist in 1.5.1svn r20457

I've revised the report to be a little more comprehensive than just the fonts. The whole SE preference submenu needs work.

All 3 issues have been fixed in r20553/4 by Craig
Thanks to Jluc for reporting and IbtisamN to bring this up in the ML.
There is an issue I found when applying settins within SE that it exits SE back to textbox on the canvas. I will open a separate issue for that and link it back here.

EDIT: Added child issue 0013530 "Settings in Story Editor when applied exit SE back to canvas"
