Similar features for individual non-styled properties like color, line width, etc. would also be useful (may have already been requested for color).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another specific example is global dimension replacement: scaling a document by changing all dimensions by a certain factor (*5 to make a large chart or 3pt -&gt; 1mm to convert to &quot;nice&quot; metric units, etc.). This would apply to all aspects of the document, including styles (see &lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=3756&quot;&gt;0003756&lt;/a&gt;).]]></description><category>General</category><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2026 18:07:40 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=3778</guid><comments>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=3778#bugnotes</comments></item><item><title>0010043: Support Multi-Touch Gestures for Page Zoom</title><author></author><link>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=10043</link><description><![CDATA[Scribus already inherits the OS X multi-touch gestures for mouse movement and page/window scrolling, but lack recognizing the &quot;pinch&quot; gesture for page zoom-in and zoom-out.

If i want to make a new document i have to type something like:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
newDocument((297,210), (14.111,14.111,14.111,14.111), oPORTRAIT, 1, UNIT_MILLIMETERS, PAGE_1, 0, 1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Code gets more readable is you can type:&lt;br /&gt;
newDocument(size=(297,210), margins=(14.111,14.111,14.111,14.111), orientation=PORTRAIT, firstPageNumber=1, unit=UNIT_MILLIMETERS, pagesType=PAGE_1, firstPageOrder=0, numPages=1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe a seperate python wrapper module could be generated, with something like:&lt;br /&gt;
import Scribus&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
def newDocument(size=(297,210), margins=(14.111,14.111,14.111,14.111), orientation=Scribus.PORTRAIT, firstPageNumber=1, unit=Scribus.UNIT_MILLIMETERS, pagesType=Scribus.PAGE_1, firstPageOrder=0, numPages=1):&lt;br /&gt;
    &quot;&quot;&quot; Add documentation here &quot;&quot;&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
    return Scribus.newDocument(size, margins, orientation, firstPageNumber, unit, pagesType, firstPageOrder, numPages)]]></description><category>Scripter</category><pubDate>Fri, 13 Mar 2026 16:39:21 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=11286</guid><comments>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=11286#bugnotes</comments></item></channel></rss>
