Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin):7.0
Operating System:XP

Hi,

When UIM objects (e.g. buttons) are positioned on a window (graph, wks) they are not printed with the print command and also not shown in the print preview. There is only one exeption: text objects.

Is it possible to change settings of UIM objects in order to have them printed?

Thanks
Bye

Stefan

Hi Stefan,

See if this works for you:
  1. From the Origin menu, choose Edit:Button Edit Mode.
  2. Right-click on your UIM object and select Label Control.
  3. Set the Script, Run After drop-down list to None and click OK.

Hi Mike,
that works!

If one wants to use e.g. mouseclick events on an object at one time and printing at an other time one has to toggle
the script variable before accordingly:

Win!object.script=0; "printing is possible"
Win!object.script=1; "no printing, mouseclick is executed"

Would be fine to have this little trick included in the HELP file.

Thanks & bye

Stefan

Stefan, thank you for pointing this out. I will request that we include an example in the Programming Help file that shows how to toggle printing of objects on and off.
