How to print file?

Hello,

I just realized that there's no Print menu in Adventure IDE.

Is this a bug?

Thanks

This feature has not been asked before. For testing purposes, as I do not have a printer, I would have to resort to a virtual printer software that prints the file as a PDF document. I'll do some tests later.

Meanwhile, integration with basic printing can be achieved by creating a "tool" (Tools > Configure Tools) that opens the current file in Notepad with the parameters: /P "{:FULLPATH:}".

I'm quite astonished to learn that this feature is not even thought about. I mean, every application I use provides this function. I think it's just a few lines of code to add it in the menu and you have this almost immediately without much trouble. The menu will call standard windows API to open printer dialog, etc.

Or could you add the suggested "tool > configure" things in the next version by default so we don't have to configure it in every copy/instance of Adventure IDE we deploy?
