           Summary: View Object Printing Bugs
           Product: kst
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kst kde org
        ReportedBy: netterfield astro utoronto ca


Version:           1.2.0_devel (using KDE 3.4.3, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4-r1, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8)
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.12-gentoo-r6

There are numerous bugs in printing and exporting to graphics files - presumably related.  This report covers many of them: refer to the attached plots for reference:
-snapshot.png: a snapshot of of the kst window
-png_output.png: exported to graphics file
-print.pdf: printed to file.

All errors in the graphics output are also in the print output, but not all errors in the print output are in the graphics file output.

Open print.pdf and observe the following problems:

-The curve is drawn over the text box (text box should be in front)

-The ellipse does not appear at all, but it has masked out the plot lines.

-the diagonal line becomes very blocky when it is over the plot.

-The width of the text box line changes when it is over the plot.

-The labels are bitmapped, but at a high resolution (~300dpi?), so it actually looks ~ok on a printer.

As saving doesn't currently work, I'm not including a kst file.
