"...Perhaps to check if real printer is available on application opening in order to disable "Print Preview" item." Sorry. |

The problem is only a wrong initial default when no printer is installed, after the first time you open Printer Setup it show an error message and select PS, then you can no more select "System printer" again if no printer is available. Revision 3239 fix the initial default value and resize the print dialog for no overlap: https://sourceforge.net/p/skychart/code/3239/ The print to bitmap function is intended for high quality large size bitmap but JPG is very bad to render a line mode map. You can reduce the bitmap size in Print Setup (resolution and page size). For screen size JPG use the File / Save image.. function. |

I have recompiled latest SVN, however "Print Preview" item is still visible on main menu... This new test code I have placed show there is no printer. There is some other problem, as setting MenuPrintPreview.Visible:=(cfgm.PrintMethod=0) have no effect here, probably is reset somewhere else... ... if Printer.PrinterIndex>=0 then cfgm.PrintMethod:=0 else cfgm.PrintMethod:=1; //New test code if cfgm.PrintMethod=0 then ShowMessage('Have printer') else ShowMessage('Have NO printer'); MenuPrintPreview.Visible:=(cfgm.PrintMethod=0) ; |

Yes this part of the code set the default value for the first time you run the program. After that the destination printer is read from the config file. Revision 3245 fix this problem, and also in the case someone remove all it's printer: https://sourceforge.net/p/skychart/code/3245/ |
