Summary0015505: Invisible headings comes out from the toolbar
DescriptionI am an editorial designer who recently shifted to FOSS, and the bugged version of scribus is the ONLY one that writes Arabic, which I currently need urgently. However, when I open the programme it doesn't show any text from the drop down menu of the main bar (file, edit... etc.) menu, therefore it is practically useless for me. Can you please fix this problem ASAP, either by fixing this version for Scribus (1.5.4) or adding a plugin for Scribus (1.4.7) that helps with UTF-8 and RTL as well as Hindi Numbering formats?

This is a duplicate of issue 0015433.

On Ubuntu Bionic, the simplest solution for you is probably to use the PPA setup by Canonical:
https://code.launchpad.net/~scribus/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

I tried many ways to add the line in the source.list.d but it is not possible. Kindly note the following:
1- my Scribus 1.5.4 is an "appimage" file that I operate by using properties> >all executable files> run as a program.
2- I will need the step by step codes, or operations.
Is there a way to make the 1.4.7 work with writing Arabic properly? or will the solution be for the appimage of 1.5.4?

No. The first version which supports Arabic is 1.5.3.

>> I will need the step by step codes, or operations.

1) open terminal
2) enter command: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:scribus/ppa
3) enter command: sudo apt-get update
3) enter command: sudo apt-get install scribus-ng

Neither, the PPA solution will install Scribus as a regular Linux application, not as an appimage
