<div> </div>
<div>we had a problem with restoring the connections to columns in spreadsheets that are part of a workbook. This bug is already fixed but I think it's still present in the version you're using. To workaround this problem now without upgrading to the most recent version (should be the preferred way, though) is to create a "stand-alone" spreadsheet. So, just create a new spreadsheet without the workbook and import your data.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As to the export, this should work actually. If you select the plot and click on the export button in the toolbar, are you able to export to PDF and PNG or JPEG?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards,</div>

<b>Betreff:</b> LabPlot - Cannot print or export</div>
<div name="quoted-content">
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;"><span style="font-size: 0.92em;">Fedora 33, KDE/Plasma desktop, LabPlot version 2.7.0 from the Fedora repository</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">I touch LabPlot once a year for a special need, so much of my knowledge evaporates over the year. It is time for me to get back to it.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">I have a project with a workbook that links to a CSV file of values. I figured out how to create a basic plot. Now I have two problems:</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">1) When I save the project, the plots are NOT saved. Every time I open the project, I have to create the plots again. Who can I save plots?</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">2) Once the plots are created, I want to print them to PDF and export them to JPG. File-Print and File-Export do nothing. It is like clicking on /dev/null. There is no error, no windows pop up, nothing is printed ... How can I get these features to work? It is almost like LabPlot thinks there is nothing to print.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">If I select the worksheet, then File-Export does work. Of course, that's not what I want to export! When i select a plot, I get nothing.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">Snaps are not an option. The version of LabPlot in the snap library is 2.6.0 which does not have some of the features I need. Flatpaks are not an option because the flatpak package requires Wayland, and I cannot run that. The nVidia display driver does not work with Wayland. And as a matter of sensibility, the flatpak wants to install something like 2 gigabytes of stuff. WTF?????</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">I tried compiling 2.8.1 from source, but that throws hundreds of dependency errors. I have no idea what it is asking for.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;"><span style="color: rgb(0,0,0);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255,255,255);"><span style="font-family: monospace;">-- Could NOT find KF5Archive (missing: KF5Archive_DIR) </span></span></span><br/>
-- Could NOT find KF5Archive: found neither KF5ArchiveConfig.cmake nor kf5archive-config.cmake <br/>
-- Could NOT find KF5Completion (missing: KF5Completion_DIR)<br/>

I am open for suggestions.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">Thanks!</p>
