If there are objects selected on a layer which has a different scale from the active layer they do not show as being selected, but the "Fit to Objects" button recognizes them as selected items and adjusts the screen accordingly.
I think this is a bug. Do you agree?

So the problem is still outstanding. I have offered to send a copy of the offending files for researching the problem, but it appears I have used up my quota of replies. Either that or there is no one listening in any more to help out.

Just loaded VW9.5.1 and the page set-up problem still exists. I can print to a file successfully in 9.0.1 but not 9.5.1 or 9.5.0.9.0.1 produces the proper ISOA0 sized sheet with the document information at A0 size, but the newer VW9.5.x produces an ISOA0 sheet with the document information at roughly 34% or tabloid size in the lower right corner.I can send the file if there is an answer or investigation needed.

There seems to be some connection between saved sheets and page set-up, am I correct? When I switch between sheets (VW9.5.0) on one of my documents the page set-up seems to change. I will set it up correctly for the first saved sheet (ISO A0) but after switching to the second saved sheet the page set-up has change to a custom sized sheet and if I switch to the third saved sheet the page set-up dialogue box will actually come up if I try to print. Subsequently the program usually crashes before getting to the actual print dialogue box. I am hoping that this will be cleared up next week when I have a chance to upgrade to VW9.5.1.

I have a simple tag symbol with one record value attached to the text within. The record is called TextRecord, the field is called TextField and is of type Text with a default value of X. I have inserted various numerical like values from 01 through to 22. I did not use integer format because I needed the leading zero.
So after placing this symbol numerous times and inserting the values I sought to reorganize the legend. This required me to select the symbols based upon the value of a record's field ("TextField").
I brought up the command Custom Selection and set it to select only. Then adjusted the criteria to field value , "TextField" = 01The result was nothing being selected yet there are at least two or more symbols which are displaying this field value. I tried other values with the same result. I tried placing single and double quotes around the value; the result was scripting errors. I change the criteria so it was "TextField" <> 01 and the tool selected all the tag symbols.
Arrrgh! Help please...
Oh, and here is a good one if I enter 0 (zero) instead of 01 in the first instance, all objects except for the symbols with the record attached/embeded to them are selected! Where is a bug gremlin when you need it?

Hello Katie
I could send one of the files to you if you send me an email address. Then you could open it in both 9.0.1 and 9.5.1 and print to a file or your plotting device. You will find that the changes made to the page setup in 9.0.1 will be implemented in the output and the changes made in 9.5.1 will not.

I do not belive it is a problem with the PDF creation but belive it has to do with printing/plotting in general.
ps to PDF just happens to be a frequent output method we use to send documents to out of town print houses.
Test plots to our HP plotter produce the problem as well.

I was using CarbonLib 1.4 when I posted this query, but have now updated to CarbonLib 1.5.
Still shows the same problem.

I have 2 files which I am plotting to files and converting them to PDF files by distiller.
In VW9.5 they are placed on an ISO A0 sheet but are only 34% of proper size. I assume this setup information originates from a previous printing of the sheet onto a tabloid sheet via one of our laser printers.
If I open them using VW9.01 they plot to file correctly. The page setup info is identical in both versions when I check it. Even after I plotted the files from VW9.01 correctly and saved; the result of attempting to plot from VW9.5 is still incorrect.
In both cases they view fine from the VW application, but not so via the PDF file created from the PS file from VW9.5
My system is Mac OS 9.2.1
