Cannot replicate here. |

Malex: qouting the description: "(I'm using the minimalist tiling window manager ion3)." That's the key part of this report, I guess. This is a non-KDE and non-Gnome user, to replicate this we have to launch this windows manager first. |

Reminder sent to: mkoren mkoren: you are a debian user, could you try to replicate this? Thx in advance |

I've just tested with the abovementioned window manager (Ion3, the keyboard friendly window manager, my gosh!) on Ubuntu Dapper Drake and cannot confirm this behaviour, meaning langscape/portrait aren't switched. As for the attached screen shots -- yes, there are no floating windows, but honestly, I don't think, anybody on the scribus team is going to optimize Scribus for 1000+ window managers out there. I think the simple message should be: if you want to use Scribus on Linux, go and get KDE or Gnome. I think, it should be clearly stated somewhere on the Website and in the docs to avoid wrong expectations. Peter, what do you think about it? |

That is a major bug in that window manager.. major major major.. Useless.. erase it.. forget it.. get a real one. |

I am a debian user, and as it happens I also use Ion, and I've never had this problem. Ion is certainly weird in some respects, but it does some things well. I'm using it until I write a better one. :) I've been able to use it with Scribus fine, and have refrained from submitting usability bug reports where the problem is clearly Ion. I don't think the reporter here was making any complaints about the look of the windows, just explaining why they look unusual. Anyway I can't imagine it would affect a problem like this. A window manager just places windows. At any rate this is obviously a larger problem since the same thing is reported on Windows in 1.3.3.1 in the related bug 0003545. But I can't replicate it here. |

I meant the palette and dialog locations... |
