Beta 4: Print going crazy!

[davehohl]

I opened a workspace and had 15 files open. I selected "all buffers" in the print dialog and then clicked on Print. I expected all the open files to print.

Instead SE started printing all sorts of files from a completely different workspace. Files that had not even been open in that workspace.

I have attached a screenshot of the print dialog. As you can see, the directory shows "Motor Controller Micro" but all the files printed were from a completely different directory.

Moreover, the printouts themselves are all messed up. Characters are pixelated and squished together, sometime overwriting each other (especially when following bold text). Completely unusable.

I can print the same file using V17 and it works fine.

Which emulation are you using? If you run the list-buffers command, are there files listed in there from you other workspace?
Please try deleting/moving/renaming the vrestore.slk file found in your configuration directory and see if it behaves properly after that.

I am using CUA emulation.

Yes, when I do list-buffers it shows a bunch of files from the other workspace, even though they are not open in tabs. Deleting vrestore.slk does not fix the problem.

Also, any idea why the actual printing is messed up? I can work around the buffer problem by just printing one file at a time, but that does not solve the problem of the output being garbled.

I managed to fix the buffer problem by doing list-buffers and then deleting them all in the file window.

I have attached a pdf file showing what the printout problems look like.

I think I know what's going on with the font problem and I think I know how to fix it too. I'll do some testing tomorrow. Thanks for reporting this.

The font problem will be fixed in the next beta

Excellent! The fonts seem to be working fine in Beta 5.
