Yes: Don't use Flatpak if you don't want a sandboxed application. :) Cheers, andre -- Andre Klapper | ak...@gmx.net https://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper/ ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Re: [Evolution] Unable to print from Evolution
Thank you for your reply, I chose flatpack as I had read it would be the most up to-date version. Am I right in thinking that I just uninstall Evo from the Flatpack section of the software manager and then head into the supported section and install and lose the accounts that are setup? Or can I install the supported version whilst leaving the Flatpack one intact? I'm guessing this option may cause a lot of issues.

I'm guessing this option may cause a lot of issues. [Please don't top-post in replies] I've never used the flatpak version of Evolution. However I'd guess it's highly likely that account and configuration information would be preserved, as this is stored in your home directory and not as part of the Evolution installation itself. poc ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

If you send a PDF file to the system print command ('lpr') it will
process it correctly. Printing a file from Evolution should be no
different.
