Printing labels

Hi

How come you make callsign bold or fonstize bigger. I mean only callsign.
Example, Confirming qso with: ${4}, so how do you manage set so, that ${4} becomes bold... If I try set it, all text becomes bold in Glabels??
Please, some ironwire advice :D

Re: Printing labels

Hi Jarmo,

parameter that you want to have bold, has to be in its own text area. After that, you'll be able to set it bold.

re: Printing Labels

Next dumb question.
It seems, when I have calls like oho/oh1mrr or oh1mrr/p qlabels separates
forinstance oh0/
oh1mrr
or oh1mrr/
P

How can I avoid this?

re: Printing Labels

I've never had this problem. Do you have text object long enough? Maybe the callsign is too long and it moves part of it to new line.

re: Printing labels

I was thinking that also, but answer is no.
Forins. I have sn2012euro it's ok, but I have fs/k9el, that separates
k9el after "/" to new line. Also normal dh9ypa/p, "p" goes next line.
If I keep whole label as one text object, all is ok. Glabels verion is 3
in Fedora 17, if it matters.

Re: Printing labels

Now I have spent more time with Glabels and found it! Tnks Petr again.
Text object was not long enough. I strenghten it and calsigns were ok.
Jus wonder why sn2012euro fitted, but dh9yap/p didn't? "/" must be somekind of separator in Glabels, if obfect is not long enough.
Ok, as a beginner of printing labels, not so many wasted labels, tested as printing into file. And propably learned something :D or not.

When CQRLOG is all done and you feel youself bored, think about linking automatically call Glabels, hi.

Re: Printing labels

I'm sorry Jarmo, now I have no idea. Maybe a bug in glabels.
