now, there is an alternative for all that, but it's tricky... since we can use QWebFrame::render() on a QPainter that uses the QPrinter as paint device, in theory we can position a QPicture of the profile exactly over the already rendered profile HTML frame (e.g. in your PDF that would be "dive profile area"), but that's only in theory. this way we are going to use QPicture's vector properties and it's probably going to be faster compared to using SVG as an intermediate format, i'd say. because we don't need to render the profile in the QWebView. the question is, can we easily estimate where the QPicture profile should be placed and what scale it should have... you can also try experimenting with this approach. this is the preferred way to go. > > P.S.: use bottom posting, please: > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Bottom-posting my bad, you *did* use bottom posting. it's just that gmail did something strange with the [...] expansion. lubomir -- _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
