| Summary | 0009293: Properties Panel / Palette does not appear | ||||
| Description | I just installed Scribus 1.3.7 on my Mac OS X. It is impossible to launch/view the properties window/palette. Neither through F2 key or through Window/Properties panel. I have a french version of Scribus. I did try the 1.3.8 version, idem. ============== this issue has been fixed for 1.3.9 (and 1.4) until 1.3.9 is released, you can go through the following steps to get the PP to work on Mac OS X: 1) Quit Scribus 2) Open the preferences file in TextEdit Home> Library> Preferences> Scribus> prefs135.xml (path: ~/Library/Preferences/Scribus/prefs135.xml ) 3) search for the line containing <context name="PropertiesPalette"> 4) Change any negative values for 'left' and 'top' to positive ones e.g. <attribute key="left" value="100"/> <attribute key="top" value="100"/> 5) restart Scribus | ||||

I try to check the Console for some error, the last message is : "Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file" |
|
|
Finally, I got the answer and the solution : the pref135.xml file was wrong. <context name="PropertiesPalette"> <attribute key="height" value="600"/> <attribute key="left" value="-300"/> <attribute key="top" value="64"/> <attribute key="visible" value="1"/> <attribute key="width" value="300"/> </context> When I changed "left" from -300 to 300 everything went ok. By the way, I did not find anywhere in the doc that the preference file, under MAC, is located in : /Users/%user%/Library/Preferences/Scribus instead of what it is writter : /Users/.scribus/ |

Where did you see that preferences would be in .scribus ? http://docs.scribus.net/index.php?lang=en&page=install4 indicates they will be in /Users/username/Library/Preferences/Scribus on Mac OS X |

We seem to have been checking for top/right/width and height, but not if the palette was to the left of the screen.. fixed in svn now |
