Print Function

[Blackmogs]

Is there the ability to print a thread? Have fiddled about but not found it yet.

The easiest way is to copy/paste onto a word document and then print. That is what I was doing when I was sorting out Articles.

 

[Blackmogs]

Ok - thanks.

There is a print option on More Options at the bottom of the posting box but it does not seem to do anymore than your browser would do.
I am using the browser for Articles but copy and paste for threads because I don't want the avatars etc on the print out.

I have just selected the text on a number of posts and printed them off. You do get the atavars though. I couldn't get anything from more Options though

 

[Mutters]

Neither can I.

I have highlighted, right clicked my mouse, clicked print and it worked great.

I have highlighted, right clicked my mouse, clicked print and it worked great. Was trying to help Blackmog's Elizabeth post...sorry no luck

Sue, please what did you highlight?

Sue, please what did you highlight?

The original thread. that was posted..."Can Anyone Help me find Elizabeth Hugh(e)s baptism?"

Just for the record, I selected all of the posts in a thread and printed that. I got none of the avatars, just the empty boxes and a picture that came out as a thumbnail. Next I want to see whether I have to do two lots if the threads run over the page. I think that the ability to have a 'printer version' which selects the entire thread in one go and leaves out the extraneous stuff would be jolly handy though. Not essential!

I highlighted this in Blackmogs' post, right clicked, chose print, ticked selection, print and got this. Maybe its how different computers work, but I can print what I want...no problem.
