UPDATED FEATURE - Hybrid Agenda Print Layout

7 years 5 days ago
#77105
I have added an additional print layout that is a hybrid of the FTH Standard and TM Print Layouts. The hybrid layout allows you to use your meeting description but also uses the left officer sidebar as in the TM Print Layout. This is intended to be a "compromise" between the two.

One note... I have added a B&W version of this layout, but you should be aware that I only change the text that the code generates to black and white. Anything in your Meeting Description is not affected by this and you will need to set that to black and white yourself.

I tried the new list of Print Layouts, and had some problems. (I hadn't previously done this - because FTH Standard is my favorite; and my new VPE used the Hybrid New was her default on her last agenda without incident.)

See attached summary of how each Header choice looked.
1) TM Layout and TM Layout B&W not only has the TI logo in the header (in color), but also the Mission Statement too - in otherwords, the FTH Standard heading. Do I have to blank the Agenda Description from the default?
2) Hybrid NEW - B&W - I noticed that the TI logo was printed in Color (as it was in Hybrid New).

(Do I have to reset my cookies to clear these errors? I don't normally clear Cookies when I shut down.)

I already covered this in other posts. I do not like to write code to change what is essentially your content. The Meeting Description is your content. Generally, if your content does not look the way you expect, then you need to update that content, rather than complaining that it is a bug that the system will not fix your content for you to make it look like you expect. :pinch:

Despite that, I have taken some steps to force the Meeting Description to hide the globe and look black and white in the appropriate layouts.

I'll inform my successor VPM who is not yet registered on this Forum that she'll need to physically modify the Agenda Heading text (to remove the Mission Statement) if she plans to use one of the Hybrid Layouts where the mission statement is automatically included by default. (With all the recently changes, its no longer safe to merely copy past agenda formats forward to the current year - without deciding in advance which Layout will become the club's new default.)

Hello all, on this related topic, is there a way to print the "background graphics" of the alternating grey/white rows within the Hybrid agenda (similarly to the FTH Standard)? I ensure that my background graphics are enabled for printing, but I don't see the coloured rows. It could be that this is just not part of the format - just wanted to check. By the way, I love the new hybrid agenda! Thank you for this!
