printing problem in mechanica

printing problem in mechanica

(OP)
Hi,
I am having a problem with printing a graph from a mechanica results window. With the background color set to white the graphs are incomplete as the labels and curves are white also. Background set to black works fine for viewing but for printing it eats up toner and I don't like the way it looks in my reports. This is a known bug but is being ignored by PTC and has not been fixed in wildfire. Does anyone have a work around for this?
Thanks,
Bob

Bnrg,

I suggest exporting the data to a data file and using the software of your choice (MS Excel, Matlab, etc.) for formatting.

Best regards,
