pyILPER 1.8.9 - Dave Frederickson - Yesterday 12:34 AM

It seems that I can no longer select text from a Printer window using either the mouse or cursor keys for copying and pasting.

ILPer still works as expected.

Unfortunately I could not reproduce this issue on Windows 10 with pyILPER 1.8.9 and the Python/QT Versions (3.12.7/6.6.1) and (3.12.7/6.8.1). Please tell me which OS/Python/Qt version you are using. The Python and Qt versions are displayed in the Help/About window. Did you install with Miniconda (not recommended any more) or PyPI?

Python 3.11.9 and Qt 6.7.3 installed with PyPI on Win10.


RE: pyILPER 1.8.9 - jsi - Yesterday 04:56 PM

Installed exactly the same software version. Did the following:
  • Removed Python 3.12
  • Installed Python 3.11.7 from the Microsoft Store
  • opened a command window and entered the following commands:
Code:

c:
cd \users\achim
python -m venv test
test\scripts\activate --> command prompt changes to (test) c:\Users\achim
python -m pip install --upgrade pip (recommended step)
python -m pip install Pyside6==6.7.3 (force installation of exactly this Qt version)
python -m pip install pyilper
pyilper

Started EMU71:
Code:

RUN PILTERM
PLIST <some textfile> to generic!!! printer (neither HP2225 nor HP82162A!!)

On pyILPER
Select some lines of text in generic!! printer window, right mouse context menu -> Copy

Could paste selected text into MS Word.

I recommend installing pyILPER in a new virtual environment as a test.
