Changing printer to landscape crashes v4.3.2

Post by John Pyrich »

I discovered three different ways that changing the printer to landscape crashes the program. First, if you change the printer for a specific Document Class to landscape, you get the following error if you accept the changes and then exit the program:

Here's the error when I load a document, change the priter to landscape and do a Print Preview:

Finally, here's the error if you change the Document Class settings, accept the changes, load a document and do a Print Preview:

Hi John

This problem is now fixed in our next release of TextPad which will be available in a few days from our web sites Download page. This problem occurs on 95,98 and ME but not NT and 2000.

The only workaround for now is to change the paper orientation, then restart TextPad, before printing. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Kind Regards

Heidi-Marie
