|
still not applied (as i found out): font size, gradients, alignment, styles, distance of text, tabs |
|
|
-- font size, alignment, styles work ok now -- all properties from "Shape" tab (number of cols, distance of text, etc) need to be fixed -- gradient needs fixing |
|
|
Gradients are ok in 1.3.4cvs |
|
|
Line properties seem to work except for the "Custom" line type: It only applies to one of the objects in the multiple selection (scribus-ng on ubuntu, 1.3.6, 16 march 2010, Build ID C-C-T-F-C1.8.8) |
|
|
Other properties still do not work (Text, Form ...) in 1.3.6 Line and Color property change works only when you first select one frame, switches to the proper property register and select the other frame. If you first select all frame and then switches to e.g. the Color register you won't be able to change anything. |

Martin - I'd like to discuss how we can achieve editing of more properties when multiple are selected. |

Hi Craig, that's a great idea. I've seen the following things in other programs and I think it should work similarly in Scribus. 1. only show properties/input fields that all selected objects have in common 2. the values in input fields, combo boxes, etc. only show the same value if all objects have the same value, otherwise it is "mixed" 3. a change to an input field affects all objects equally For step 2, the properties window needs to be extended so that the values of all objects are read and displayed "mixed" if necessary. Step 3 can possibly be solved entirely using the "itemSelection_" functions in the Scribus doc. I think we could start with step 3 and then step 2. From my point of view step 2 is huge, because we have to replace the "current item" with a list of current items. |

hi Martin Many years ago, the old Properties Palette allowed changes across many items that were selected. We found issues and it was eventually blocked for all but the simplest changes. I am not sure we need to change too much in terms of UI layout.. or at least I would not start with that. There's some simple opportunities to try out. Eg selecting multiple items of the same type and trying to set colours and borders. Eg I recently had to import about 40 images into a doc for my daughter, then set frame border of 1px and black. I had to do each and all of them. Also worth noting, 1.7.0 release should be this year. Best not to rip it apart now :) |

Also.. we lost a lot of tooltips across the palettes. they all need adding back in. Not sure where to start with that. UI files I suppose? |
