River/Lake merge not displaying on print

Post by efremj » Fri Feb 12, 2016 11:02 pm

Hello!

I printed out a couple of test maps that I was playing around with and noticed that lakes and rivers do not show up as merged items. They show up on screen just fine--no outlines (segregating borders), everything flows from river to lake and so on, but when I print them, the lakes have borders all the way around and sit on top of the rivers.

Complex rivers with multiple streams come out just fine in print, however.

Thanks!

Do you see the issue as well if you export the map as png (or bmp/jpg/etc)? Printing was enabled by mistake in Beta 2, we hadn't tested much with it yet.

If exporting to PNG doesn't have any issues you can do that for now, and print the maps from outside OWM.

Thanks!

That's actually how I discovered it--I exported my map to a .png file, then opened it up in an image viewer and printed it.

I can't print directly from the OWM software--the prints come out blank, FYI. Sounds like maybe you know about that..?

Hi,

Fixed the river/lake merging problem when a map is being exported for Beta 3.

Thanks for the feedback!
