Cannot print nattable to the correct size [message #1692579]

I am trying to print the nattable. But I am getting some strange behaviour and I am trying to understand what is happening. I am not able to print it on the whole paper. See attached image.
Also, there is only one header column which prints correctly with the right size. Nothing else in the table prints in the right size. Please help. Thanks.

How do you try to print?

I use the following:

natTable.doCommand(new PrintCommand(natTable
                .getConfigRegistry(), natTable.getShell()));

I have registered the PrintCommandHandler with the composite layer underneath the nattable.

Then org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.nattable.print.LayerPrinter should deal with the upscaling. Not sure what is different in your code to the code in the examples.

What could be the reason for that one header cell to be printed correctly?

If you did it like shown in _801_VerticalCompositionWithFeaturesExample in the Additional Feature examples of the NatTable Examples Application, it should work.

Hi Dirk,
I figured that the printing was not correct because I was setting two different instances of composite layer on the nattable. Once, I pass the composite layer as a constructor argument. Later, I create different compositelayer and use nattable.setLayer(compositelayer). This is causing printing issues.

My question is, how can I remove a layer from nattable, so that I can use a new composite layer? Also, how can I remove childlayer from composite layer?
Thanks.

I'm not sure if this use case is supported that easily. Because there might be several configurations connected to the initial layers. Simply exchanging the layer stack can therefore cause serious issues because of now invalid references.

From my point of view you should exchange the whole NatTable instance in your UI, not only switching the layers.
