excel sheet to print 'print area' (99.50 KB, application/vnd.ms-excel)
2007-04-04 02:15 UTC, Kurt 		Details

Description Kurt 2007-04-01 04:37:52 UTC 
when printing a range chosen as 'print area' clicking on print causes the program to crash.
Comment 1 Andreas J. Guelzow 2007-04-01 19:12:08 UTC 
Please explain exactly what you did that may have lead to the crash. 

Thank you.

excel sheet to print 'print area'
Comment 3 Kurt 2007-04-04 02:21:52 UTC 
print the current 'print area' on the file sent. this is a section from the spread sheet that I print from Excel every day. The only thing keeping me using Excel is the ability to print to fit a selection to a single page. Your program is all but perfect except of the print to fit feature. (same problem with OpenOffice Lotus and Quatro)
Comment 4 Kurt 2007-04-04 02:26:34 UTC 
also one thing that I would like the spread sheet to do is when pressing ENTER, to have an option (by the sheet, not global to the program) to move the cursor to the right (like TAB)
Comment 5 Andreas J. Guelzow 2007-04-04 23:27:29 UTC 
In current svn (with a completely changed printing infrastructure) this file crashes when printing or previewing with:

+ Trace 125087

  • #0 IA__g_type_check_instance_cast
    at gtype.c line 3148
  • #1 gnm_so_filled_draw_cairo
    at gnm-so-filled.c line 283
  • #2 sheet_object_draw_cairo
    at sheet-object.c line 567
  • #3 print_sheet_objects
    at print.c line 230
  • #4 print_page_cells
    at print.c line 270
  • #5 print_page
    at print.c line 730 

I am changing the component to indicate that it is a sheet object issue (at this time).
Comment 6 Andreas J. Guelzow 2007-04-04 23:38:28 UTC 
Okay that crash was easy. Now it prints fine for me, but of course currently we do not have "scale-to-fit". So I am reassigning this back to printing and will keep it open until we can in fact verify "scale-to-fit".

This file also creates lots of criticals when being saved as an excel file so somebody my want to look at that too!

I reduce the severity since it does not crash with current svn.
Comment 7 Andreas J. Guelzow 2007-04-24 22:20:47 UTC 
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
