Summary0005957: Applying styles causes text to vanish
DescriptionI have a template I use for a two-page newsletter. When I try to apply the styles to the text, it will often make all the text after the paragraph I'm working on vanish, or write other text over it. With some styles, (First and heading) I can only make them work by having at least one blank line above and below the paragraph in question. This happens every time I use the template, and it's the only template I ever use. Moving ~/.scribus to a different directory and letting it rebuild the defaults didn't help; when I brought in the template and ttried to use it I got the same results. I've used Scribus for a few flyers, with no template or styles and everything went just fine. Asking around on #scribus got the suggestion that it's the template and that I should report it here.
Steps To ReproduceOpen a new document using the template I'm uploading. Get text from a file. (I use OO.o for text editing, but that shouldn't matter.) Highlight the first paragrazph and try to set the style to First. Or, try to set a one-line paragraph to Heading. Using either Body or Comment will work more often than not, but might trigger it as well.
TagsNo tags attached.

Oops! Wrong file. I can't seem to find New.sla, but here's the closest I found. Hope it's the right one!

I *thight* I'd uploaded New.sla.gz, but it's not here. Will try again. Also, I have New.sla, the template saved as a document with no text added. I'll delete the .png and see if I can get them both uploaded.
