[scribus] How to import SVG files using a script

[Tornóci László]

Hi,

I have a bunch of SVG files (actually QR codes produced with an external
tool) that I want to import into my scribus document. It works perfectly
well manually. However, it is very boring and error prone to do it that
way (select the proper page, proper SVG file, position it, scale it for
every page). How can I do this using a script?

Simple : it requires you to find a script that does it, or to write it,
and last to use it.

I advise you to start with the 1st step : search scripts on the wiki.

Thanks for the advice, but of course, I've done it already, with no
luck. That's why I ask. An undocumented importSVG function is mentioned
here:

http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Making_a_Pie_Chart

but I get an error trying to use that (in scribus 1.4.5). There are lots
of things you can do with scripts, but I am not even sure importing SVG
files is supported at this time.

I've found the correct way in the meantime.

placeSVG(SVGFileName, posX, posY)

works fine in python scripts for scribus 1.4.5

​FUNCTION:

Places the SVG "filename" onto the current page, x and y specify the
