Summary0008078: Preview (fast mode)
DescriptionHi, I would like to suggest a feature based on a great one I have seen and used a lot in InDesign and I think Scribus would really be great having it.
A sort of fast preview (no needing to ask a command like now and waiting to be rendered in a separate window) no,, this one as in InDesign is something that just get rid of all the things that are around the working table area so to sepeak when clicking on an icon for example just gets a sort of mask that covers all what is outside of the page (in this way the designer can really have an idea of the way it would look (the great thing about this feaure thatt Indesing has is the fact that you could even decide to keep editing the file in that view mode (its ideal when needind to do professional looking stuff)

hope it makes sense.. and once again many thanks for making scribus each time better !

Well this feature is already implemented in 1.3.5 all is left to do is to make it fast. On my system it took almost 10 min. on a 50 page doc to activate this view.

but if takes so long then it looks more like a rendering a preview?? In Design manages something xtremely easy is like a switch (it doesnt even wait to render nothing is just like getting rid or puttin back a tool palette when clicking the page preview icon (and you can even edit in that mode with all the tools and features as usual) and switching it off in the fly...

hope it could evolve to become something like it (is so practical)

thanks for your feedback..

cheers...
