| Summary | 0017140: show the linking arrows for the newly created linked text frames | ||||
| Description | when linking text frames there is no real confirmation that the linking has succeeded. i like how the line with arrows are shown when the "next frame" tool is active but: - if a new target text frame is created, then the lines with the arrows disappear as soon as i start to "draw" the new text frame and there is no further feedback. - if the target is an existing frame, a new connection line is shown for a very short period but it looks more like a display error rather than a confirmation that everything worked ok. i would like to suggest to fade out (or just turn off) the lines after a couple of seconds, instead of immediately. (taking into consideration that a new linking process could start during those two seconds...) | ||||

further thoughts: the arrow should stay there until the target frame is deselected. |
|
|
And I wonder, if Scribus should not show all the links while the link tool is active. And only the current chain until the frame has been deselected. |
