When creating a pdf of a card, I am getting results that don't match the screen. See if for yourself... make a new stack, and put this in a button:
on mouseUp
--remove old buttons
repeat with i = 1 to 4
if there is a btn ("button" & i) then
delete btn ("button" & i)
end if
end repeat
--set props
set the threeD of the templateButton to false
set the borderWidth of the templateButton to 1
--create new button
new button "button1"
set the bottomRight of btn "button1" to the loc of this card
new button "button2"
set the bottomLeft of btn "button2" to the right of btn "button1" - 1,the bottom of btn "button1"
new button "button3"
set the topLeft of btn "button3" to the left of btn "button1",the bottom of btn "button1" - 1
new button "button4"
set the bottomLeft of btn "button4" to the right of btn "button3" - 1,the bottom of btn "button3"
--make the pdf
put specialFolderPath("Documents") & "/printTemp.pdf" into tPDFFile
open printing to pdf tPDFFile
print this card
close printing
end mouseUp
Click the button. You'll see that the buttons line up to form a 4x4 group all as 1 px lines as the buttons overlap each other. But, the generated PDF is not the same. It shows the lines side by side. Is there some setting I am missing?
LiveCode 6.6.4 rc2
Mac OSX 10.9.5
Same results on iOS 8
Any thoughts?
Thank you!!
