Printing specific area of card

I'm trying to print just a specific area of a card like this:

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
print this card from 0,0 to 900,700
end mouseUp
But I just get blank output. If I just do:

Code: Select all

print this card
...I get the whole card printed, as expected.

There is a thread on this from a while back but it was never resolved.(http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=22681) Anybody have any thoughts?

No bug report number was cited in that thread, so it's not possible to check current status of this issue, or determine if it was ever even submitted. It may be that a workaround was found, or some other issue was corrected.

What version are you using, on what platform?

This seem to work for me in LC 7.1dp1 on Ubuntu 14.04.

I'm on 7.1 I think, I'm not near the computer at the moment.

I don't think my stack uses any features new to v7. Can I just open my stack in livecode 6.x?

EDIT: I'm on Mac OS 10.10

EDIT 2: Problem solved! I was on 7.0, Build 10018. Upgraded to 7.1.0-DP and it works now.
