A frame is automatically selected when created. Note that information is only displayed for a selected frame - displayed as a dashed red border. The XYZ tab of the Properties window shows very precise information about the X,Y position of the upper left hand corner, the width and height of the frame, and the frame's rotation. If not already present, open it under the menu item Windows > Properties. It may be more conventional to start with the upper-left hand corner, but you may start with any corner to its opposite.Ĭlicking with the right mouse button brings up the Context Menu, which contains several common frame operations, an important one of which is the ability to convert a Image Frame to another type of frame.Īt this point you will find that the Properties window is an indispensible item for working with Scribus. The click determines one corner of the frame, letting up the diagonally opposite corner. This will enable your mouse to place and size the image frame: click-and-hold-down mouse button, then drag diagonally on the page.
