printing problem

[anon125]

how do i get it to just print the plan and to fill the page with just the plan?
the help files say to use window and  select two points.. does not seem to work. select on print dialog box or the plan?

Since my work flow does not use print from TFP I have not used it but remember seeing the topic covered here earlier...

suggest you search  (see upper right of this window) for "print" in this forum

thanks

Rick.

There are 2 options- turn off the Terrain and set the Print Area as Window or shrink the display sideways (stretch the elements pallet ) so that the edges of the work area fit tightly around your plan and in Print Area select Display.  Either should work.

Hi Rick,

It is the side panel where all the elements are listed, wall types, window types etc. You have your plan vertical on the page so stretching this panel will make your drawing area portrait rather than landscape. You could probably re-size the window and get the same effect.

The aim is to get the display the same  proportion as the paper them the display will fill the page.

That is weird!
BUT it worked!
I just made the right hand panel bigger and enlarged the left magnification.
as a bonus - the print is readable!
thanks a lot!
