2383.0. "Printing from CM" by ANGLIN::HARRIS (Let the party begin...) Tue Mar 09 1993 17:17

ALL-IN-1 3.0-1, VMS 5.5-2

i'm trying to print out information in CM about the elements that have been 
customized but am running into a couple of problems...

1. is there 1 print option in CM in 3.0 that will work like 2.4 print from CM?

2. when i do P EI, only the 1st 3-4 lines print out.  i'll try to recreate..

3. When i try to print the NDL of a form (DEFAULT as example), only about 15 
   lines are printed on a page. and not the whole ND is printed, the last 5-10 
   lines are missing.

4. Of course, if i print to the terminal or scratch pad, everything is fine. 

5. I'm an LN03 printer.

	thanks - ann

    Can you print to a file or a document?  It sounds like the formatting
    (for the LN03) isn't producing all the lines that it should.

    Sounds to me like...
    
    a. The form attached the the VMS queue that you're using has a
       /TRUNCATE on it. Take this away.
    
    b. (an observation of mine too) Printing from CM seems to ignore most
       (if not all) of the information in the chosen print style. You try
       printing to a PS printer using PS printer tables if you can't attach
       a data=POST parameter to the print job......

2383.3Use 'multiple print' optionsUTES09::EIJSSimon Eijs @Utrecht; 838-2558Tue Mar 23 1993 08:0724
    Hi Ann,
    
> 1. is there 1 print option in CM in 3.0 that will work like 2.4 print from CM?

The print options from V2.4 were taken away and replaced by what we thought was
a more generic approach. The code used in V2.4 could handle a few element
types, but certainly couldn't handle the unlimited number of element types in
ALL-IN-1 V3.0. So if you take an FRM in V2.4 you printed everything in one
time, in V3.0 it has been split in generic options. 

To 'emulate' a V2.4 print option use:

	- Print
	- SELect options EI (Element information) and ET (Element text) or TD 
	  (Text description; FRM)
	- press Return

Multiple 'options' are processed now.

HTH,

	Simon
