Summary0006884: feature request: placeholder for text snippets
DescriptionI am working in quarkxpress and neither this software, neither scribus have placeholders that I could insert in textbox and when this placeholder text is updated in one box, it is updated everywhere. Some similar functionality, but reserved to whole content of boxes, is present in quarkxpress, but not the way I would like to really have. In large documents, it could help to maintain the cohesion of the texts. Thanks for your patience.

if yes, we can close this ticket.
