Printing list of Layer Names

Post by scandiainn2000 »

I thought it might be helpful to use the "print" feature of the Define Layer window, however the results seem to have a formatting problem. "Previewing" in my print options reflects the same as is printed. Text seems to have Left/Right alignment but vertically the lines are cramed on top of each other. I tried changing parameters under Text/Note/Item Number menu but had no effects.What am I missing here?Thanks,Bill

What version of Mac OS? Thorsten will probably want to know!It works fine for me under OS X 10.3.9 with CADintosh X v5.3.2. I checked a drawing that had as many layers as I could find (#0 - #9) and all seemed satisfactory. Incidentally, I tried scrolling down to higher-numbered (empty) layers on the screen, but that does not afect what is printed. The printout appears to be just the layers with stuff actually on them.I'm sorry, I have no clue as to why your printout is fouled-up.regardsRowland-- : Wilma & Rowland Carson <http://home.clara.net/rowil/>: <rowil@clara.net> ... that's Rowland with a 'w' ...

Still have the same problem.Using an Epson R320 and a shared Epson R200 with Driver v2.1. Does it necessarily mean the trouble lies before the printer software if it shows up in Preview?

Just discovered in the User Guide that the print function is supposed to print only the current selected layers. (which certainly makes it more functional!)I thought it was printing the layers listed in the current window view. With only one layer selected it produces the same garbled list of 10 or so layers. I was wondering if there was some sort of print cache that is not clearing? Does this offer any additional help with diagnosing the issue?I uploaded a screen shot of the print preview for viewing.Thanks,Bill

I have created a new folder in the files area called Rowland Carson & put 2 files in there: a screenshot of the layers window from a file with a number of layers, and the resulting printout.I assume you don't have ony other printing problems? As far as I know, Thorsten monitors this list, but he tends to be kept pretty busy over on the GraphicConverter list, where new releases appear with amazing rapidity in response to user feedback.regardsRowland-- : Wilma & Rowland Carson <http://home.clara.net/rowil/>: <rowil@clara.net> ... that's Rowland with a 'w' ...
