Hello

I can not save snapshot. I think this function does not work correctly in the version CLO 5.0.222 (r40086) for Mac OS Sierra

For example, I created 2 simple elements

 

Next, I open

File -> Snapshot -> 2D Patterns (1:1)

I see such a picture:

 

I do not see the workspace where I can drag to print only one item..

  Hello Andrey. I believe you are referring to the File>Plotter option. Can you confirm?

  Select the size of paper you want to print. If there is a plotter, then it is better to print through the print layout.

  Hello Pablo. 

  Strange, but I do not see the plotter in the menu.
  Probably this button is not in the latest version for Mac.

  

  Now the editor of the image without errors shows the borders for printing/

  I expect a small item to not be printed, but when I save it in pdf or png, I see all elements. I can not understand, is this a program error or am I doing something wrong?

  Andrey, maybe someone with a Mac can help us here. The Plotter menu is in my Windows version.

  I think there is no option to just select just some pieces in the 2D Snapshot function. Can't you delete the unwanted pieces in PDF or in an image editor later?

  The manual shows that the Plotter is only available from the File menu on Windows. Looks like macOS the Plotter file needs to be saved from the Export sub-menu. Also need to be in the Print Layout mode to prevent an error. 

  • Navigate to Main Menu ▶ File ▶ Plotter ▶ Save (Only Available in Windows) or
    navigate to Main Menu ▶ File ▶ Export ▶ Plotter (PLT) to save as a .plt file (ver5.0.0.)

  I wish CLO would be identical in the menu system between platforms that way it doesn't require hunting when using CLO in a heterogeneous environment. Also would prevent double work in the manual.
