Changing the look and feel doesn't seem to do anything much. The colors change fractionally, but with the size of the IDE what it is, its barely noticeable. Its sort of a very limited theme control apparently. It seems to affect highlight colors, but that's about it.
Thanks for the dictionary link. Two hours later, thanks to webttrack, we have a copy of the dictionary that will display locally in a browser window. That will certainly help. Can it be drivers? Its hard to see how. It would have to be the identical problem with the drivers in cups-pdf, in the ppd for the Kyocera, and in the drivers for a Konica Minolta hung off a Jetdirect print server. Can't be, can it? It would also have to be some kind of defect in all these drivers that does not affect either graphics editors, text editors or OpenOffice. How can it be that OpenOffice, regardless of screen resolution or distribution its running on, always prints a document in a given font at the same size on paper, if there is some problem with the print dirvers? Surely, for properly written applications, print rendering is independent of screen rendering? The problem with print card is that what is sent to all the different drivers varies with screen resolution. It is what Rev is sending to the print drivers that is the problem. The drivers themselves are working perfectly. I'll have a look at the revPrintField code. My health will not allow any very intense effort on it, though. Is there really no-one in Edinburgh who can look at this stuff? One young healthy competent programmer with the source code to hand should be able to get to the bottom of it in a couple of days, surely? Anyway, last night I started on plan B, rewriting the print parts to remove all use of Rev printing, and ran into the next thing, which is that when you do cut and paste in the IDE editor, it freezes. Or rather, it seems to go into a loop, the cursor sits there flickering and is locked. Then when you close the editor, it crashes the whole IDE, so you lose work since the last save. The only realistic way to work is thus using an external editor, then copy and paste the code into the Rev editor, which I will have a go with today. -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Print-Card-is-broken-in-Linux-because-of-resolution-dependence-tp1746852p1747783.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
