On my Ubuntu, I get the following on the console when trying to print to a real printer: QPainter::begin(): Returned false QPainter::setRenderHint: Painter must be active to set rendering hints QPainter::setRenderHint: Painter must be active to set rendering hints QPainter::setRenderHint: Painter must be active to set rendering hints QPainter::setBrush: Painter not active QPainter::pen: Painter not active QPainter::setPen: Painter not active QPainter::save: Painter not active QPainter::setClipRect: Painter not active QPainter::translate: Painter not active QPainter::translate: Painter not active QPainter::setClipRect: Painter not active QPainter::setCompositionMode: Painter not active QPainter::setCompositionMode: Painter not active QPainter::setCompositionMode: Painter not active QPainter::setCompositionMode: Painter not active QPainter::restore: Unbalanced save/restore QPainter::end: Painter not active, aborted I think this was already mentioned before. Anyway, I agree that printing from Ubuntu appimage is really not an issue as PPA is more convenient anyway. miika _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
