I have been working sucessfully with a stack 3x3 screens wide (3072 x 2304)
. Have also organized users option for printing selected windows on the card,
using a .70 printScale and printrotated. It has been a lot of experimentation
to reach working coordinates for the windows, --but the 3 rightmost windows
seem impossible to print in this way. (although they are nicely included when I print
the whole card at more reduced scale). Have I hit some undescribed bug ? -
or can anyone point to another way of solving the problem.
I quoute the present handler:
on printwindow
global phenowindow
set the cursor to watch
set the printmargins to 20,20,5,5
set the printScale to .70
set the printRotated to true
if phenowindow is mainwindow then
Print this Card from 1,20 to 1020,763
end if
if phenowindow is oikoswindow then
Print this card from 730,0 to 2046,732
end if
if phenowindow is bodywindow then
Print this card from 0,550 to 1009,1560
end if
if phenowindow is glyphwindow then
print this card from 720,550 to 2060 ,1560
end if
if phenowindow is familywindow then
print this card from 0,1100 to 1009,2320
end if
if phenowindow is environswindow then
print this card from 750,1115 to 2040,2320
end if
----------------- it is only the following, which dont work:- all experiments with alternative number
values give the same result: an empty page coming out from the printer.
I shall mention, that the "window" to be printed is visible on the screen in all of the instances, which
I know is necessary precondition
if phenowindow is gardenwindow then
Print this card from 1756,30 to 2200,632
end if
if phenowindow is homewindow then
print this card from 1756,550 to 2200,1560
end if
if phenowindow is workplacewindow then
print this card from 1756,1115 to 2200,2320
end if
end printwindow
(Excuse me for re-posting more or less the same mail as before, but somehow my mailsystem does not
give automatic linewrapping, so the previous version was rather unreadable--continuing in one long line)
