Is only the font weight selection disabled, or are there other elements as well? I cannot reproduce the issue and cannot find anything in the code that only disables the font weight selection. I tested with 1.7.0 svn r26366 |
|
Only the "Font style" Steps to reproduce: 1. Mark a word in the text box, and change it i.E. to "Italic" or "Bold italic" 2. Mark the image 3. Go to "Form" -> "Edit" -> "Contour" 4. Mark the left to points from the contour line and move them by the cursor keys to the left 5. Commit the Contour line 6. Go back to the Textbox and mark another word 7. Try to change the "Font style" In my version it is locked |
|
i can't reproduce the issue here. (mac os 15.0.1, scribus 1.7.0. svn-r26264) i followed your seven steps a couple of times and can still change the font style. nothing is locked. |
|
See the following video showing what happens here https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/77oayn80u1nrp5hr9rizr/video.mov?rlkey=afjexd4nol1x7q2g31q2ryst3&st=b1llbp4y&dl=0 |
|
It is not happen always, but almost everytme of my tests. Also the "paragraph style" is disabled / locked as far as I can see, but not the "Default character style" |
|
@jhmtv If you compiled Scribus yourself, you can check if the issue is resolved with a newer code base, as the text properties window has been recently redesigned. The combobox doesn't look disabled to me. By the way, are you using more than one screen? Sometimes I have the same problem of the dropdown list being missing when the application is not running on the leftmost screen. I haven't been able to figure out why yet, though. |
|
Ok, I was able to reproduce it. It is the same behavior that I described. No problem on the left screen, on the right screen the drop-down list is not displayed. It affects all combo boxes so far. I'll try to identify the problem. It seems to occur after dialogs have been opened. |
|
You are right. I haven't detected this as a reason. I always work on the external screen connected to my MacBook Air M2 |
|
I've made some more test's. 1. You're right it is not disabled (that's the reason I called I locked) 2. But further test shows it isn't locked. I can select another style i.E. by using the "B" key and enter 3. if I open scribes on the internal MacBook screen the "Dropdown" appears at the right side of the external (left) screen (strange position) I seems to me that it is only a positioning problem, the dropdown is may be displayed somewhere in the outside of any screen. Is there anywhere a newer version downloadable than 26264? |
