Page Setup A4 not sticking in Servoy 2.1

Classic Servoy
1

I’m trying to adjust the page setup of a form to A4 landscape with 1inch margins all around. When I click defaultpageFormat again, the paper size has changed to na-9x11-envelope with margins 3.73, 1.0, 0, 0…

Servoy 2.1
Java 1.4.2
Mac OS X 10.3.5

When you open the dialog again for the deafaultPageFormat property it does not show the correct value, but under the hood it has the correct one. (the guessPaperTypeFromSize seems to fail in some cirumstances, we will lookinto this.)

My defautlpageformat property is stuck on lanscape 828,360 in one of my forms. When I click on the property to change the values and launch the dialog box, it greys out and no dialog is launched. The property works fine in my other forms. My Servoy and Java info are below. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I there any error msg in your .log.txt file? (found inside the servoy install dir)

Any progress on the original problem (as reported by swingman and commented on by Jan)?

I can confirm the same problem - A4 landcsape doesn’t stick, Servoy seems insistent on converting it to na-9x11-envelope. Neither can we come up with a workaround to get sensible printouts :-(

OTOH, A4 portrait appears to work just fine.

Environment is Java 1.4 on Mac(client), Java 1.5 on Linux(server, client), Servoy 2.1.2.

Thanks,

We manage to fix guessPaperTypeFromSize issue for the dialog, when opened with landscape orientation, will be in Servoy 2.5.
There is no issue with real printing (landscape printing works fine for us)

This appears to be partially fixed in 2.2rc1 - at least the Page Setup dialog now retains the “iso a4” setting.

But… we can’t get the margins to stick at 25.4mm (one inch). Subsequent invocations of the Page Setup dialog show us margins on Top: 0.0 Bottom: 0.0 Left: 112.4 Right: 25.4 then Top: 0.0 Bottom: 0.0 Left: 87.0 Right 0.0.

Is this still a “known problem”?

Thanks,
Neale.

Will be fixed in Servoy 2.2.6 and Servoy 3.0 (rc1 and later)
