Hi,
The Copy As Image function in version 4.9.2 is broken. It does not copy the entire schematic but only a small part of it because when I paste it into another document (like Power Point), only that small portion of the schematic got pasted. When I open the same circuit with version 4.8.9 and do the Copy As Image function, it works correctly and pasting it will show the entire schematic page. Can somebody please help confirm this and more importantly how to fix it please.
Thank you.
The Plexim development team is aware of this issue and is looking to address this in an upcoming bugfix release. The problem is driven by the “Scale” setting in Windows (Settings + System + Display + Scale) being a non-standard value.
If you need this feature, then I recommend that you continue working with PLECS 4.8.10 (Previous PLECS Standalone Packages | Plexim). This version is fully compatible with PLECS 4.9 and you will have no problems switching between versions (unless you have already used new features from 4.9).
You can also try and adjust your Scale setting to 100% or 150%, but that will change the setting for all applications on your computer, which you may not want to do.
@Bryan_Lieblick : now I realize that the copy waveform is also broken. This is not good because I need to copy - paste waveform results of my sims to some documents (like Word, Powerpoint, etc). How do I get around this permanently in version 4.9.2? Do I have to just revert back to previous version?
Yes, we are also aware of this defect. I would recommend reverting to 4.8.10 until the issue can be fixed.
You can experiment with changing your windows system scaling like I mentioned before, but this is a global change and will influence the display of all other applications on your computer.
PLECS 4.9.4 is released which should address this issue.
I have downloaded version 4.9.4 and checked and confirmed this has fixed both the schematic as well as the waveform copy-paste bug from before. Thank you for the fix.
