Hello,
probably I don't see the obvious or my math is slightly rusty. I am trying
to print only a section of a card, e.g. a rectangle, but I always only get a
(left and bottom) clipped rectangle being printed. Only when printing the
whole card I get the full rectangle. I am running out of paper from my
multiple tests :)
Here is what I tried:
on mouseUp
# create a stack, size: 348,527
# create a button with this script
# create a rectangle, size: 297,421
-- set the printpapersize to 595,842 # optional test # A4
-- set the printmargins to 40,57,40,57 # optional test
-- set the printscale to .5 # optional test
open printing with dialog
if the result is not "cancel" then
put the left of grc "rectangle" into item 1 of tLeftTop
put the top of grc "rectangle" into item 2 of tLeftTop
put the right of grc "rectangle" into item 1 of tRightBottom
put the bottom of grc "rectangle" into item 2 of tRightBottom
print this card from tLeftTop to tRightBottom
-- print this card from tLeftTop to tRightBottom into 149,210,635, #
optional test
-- print this card from tLeftTop to tRightBottom into 40,57,337,478 #
optional test # margins+ rectangle
-- print this card # this is for me the only chance to get the whole
rectangle printed
end if
close printing
end mouseUp
Does anybody see the error in my logic?
Tiemo
