&lt;br /&gt;
When text flows from one column into the next column, I often need to select a specific range of text that starts in one column and continues into the next column. However, dragging the mouse selection across columns does not work as expected. The selection cannot be continued naturally over the column break.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reliable alternative is to use Ctrl+A / Cmd+A to select all text, but that is not useful when the text contains different existing formatting or when only a specific text range should be edited.]]></description><category>Text Frames / Story Editor</category><pubDate>Fri, 12 Jun 2026 07:37:04 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17831</guid><comments>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17831#bugnotes</comments></item><item><title>0017845: Selecting text with mouse is not precise, selects unwanted part too</title><author></author><link>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17845</link><description><![CDATA[The gif will explain better.]]></description><category>General</category><pubDate>Fri, 12 Jun 2026 05:41:08 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17845</guid><comments>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17845#bugnotes</comments></item><item><title>0017844: Scribus does not detect fonts activated through third-party font managers</title><author></author><link>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17844</link><description><![CDATA[Scribus only recognises fonts installed on /Library/Fonts and ~/Library/Fonts, after being activated through Font Book.app.&lt;br /&gt;

On the other side, when the cursor is at the top of the column, I can select the whole column. That works.&lt;br /&gt;
But moving the cursor does not add the column &quot;under the cursor&quot; to the selection.&lt;br /&gt;

The same applies to the beginning of the row and the rows selecting.&lt;br /&gt;

On top of it, going to the top left corner (or top right corner to also support RTL) we should get a &quot;diagonal arrow&quot; and be able to select the the whole column at once.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Suggestion on how to make my experience better would be particularly tables. The view is a but confusing with three lines around cell. It makes it very difficult to see what the table is actually going to look like without exporting to pdf. And the handling of lines is a little difficult to figure out.  And finally it's rather time consuming to set paragraph styles. So my suggestions would be along the lines of:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Make it default to display only the actual lines of the table, and optional to show all three lines.&lt;br /&gt;
2. Make the line editor a little more like excel, where you select whether a line should be there or not, and then the design of the line independent from that. It feels a little clumsy and difficult to manage with the current control design.&lt;br /&gt;
3. Close the gaps in the cell lines. (See attached screen shot.)&lt;br /&gt;
4. Add positioning to cell style. So I can design the exact placement of text into a cell. The space between the cell lines and the text is what I mean here.&lt;br /&gt;
5. Auto adjust cell sizes to fit text as default.&lt;br /&gt;
6. Make it so the paragraph style can be chosen when multiple cells are selected, so I don't have to apply a style to individual cells one at the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I experience quite a few odd behaviours when working with tables. Perhaps the whole tables function could use a little general attention and love?]]></description><category>Tables</category><pubDate>Wed, 10 Jun 2026 19:57:23 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17387</guid><comments>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17387#bugnotes</comments></item><item><title>0017836: Page shifts to right when zoom is above 100% and a table is created</title><author></author><link>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17836</link><description><![CDATA[You have to scroll horizontally to get it back into view.]]></description><category>General</category><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 23:59:08 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17836</guid><comments>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17836#bugnotes</comments></item><item><title>0016750: Unable to select two or more non-adjacent rows or columns</title><author></author><link>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=16750</link><description><![CDATA[When I want to select two or more non-adjacent rows or columns,for instance,row 1 and row 3,there is no option that allow me do this.]]></description><category>Tables</category><pubDate>Sun, 07 Jun 2026 19:08:29 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=16750</guid><comments>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=16750#bugnotes</comments></item><item><title>0017830: The character style is not preserved across paragraphs and empty lines, resulting in newly inserted text receiving incorrect for</title><author></author><link>https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17830</link><description><![CDATA[When working with styled text, I noticed that the assigned character style is not reliably preserved in empty lines or empty paragraphs after a paragraph.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, a text frame/story has a paragraph style and a character style assigned. The visible text is formatted correctly. However, when I click into an empty line after a paragraph and continue typing, paste text, or insert copied text, the inserted text is formatted incorrectly. Font size, character formatting, or other style properties can differ from the surrounding styled text.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
This makes precise layout work difficult, because the new linked frame cannot be drawn accurately at the intended position.
