Problem:

The program does nothing when you hit print in AutoPIPE Nozzle, why?

Solution:

Before evoking the print command, be sure that the model has been analyzed and there are results displayed in the application.

The first time in every new model, user must set up the print dialog screen before the print toolbar button will function when pressed.

Select File> Print>, the following dialog should appear:

If not, be sure that it did not open behind another screen, or possibly off screen out of view.

One Test, press File > Print> with your system speaker turned on, try to grab the AutoPIPE Nozzle Application and resize / relocate the display window. If the Print reports dialog screen is open, you will hear a system beep every time you try to select the application for resizing / relocation.

Once you have located the Printer - Report dialog screen, enable / disable those options as desired (see AutoPIPE Nozzle online help for details on these options), and press the OK button to export the report to the desired print location/file type.

There are 5 locations to print an output report:

1. Screen - **Recommend option** prints the output report to the screen for review with the ability to print to a system printer of choice 

2. Printer - prints the report the default system printer (suggest using a PDF printer driver)

3. RTF format - prints a RTF file to the same folder as the model

4. PDF format - prints a PDF file to the same folder as the model

5. HTML format - prints a HTML file to the same folder as the model

Problem #2:

Noticed report never comes up
