BeerSmith 3.1 Open Beta Download Available

Hi,
  If you have print issues, please try going to Options->Reports and check the box to print to browser.  This will send printouts to your browser which gives you much more control over how the reports are printed.

I have no problem printing recipes from either the Design tab or the report. Also running Windows 10 and have never had a problem printing anything in BeersSmith.

I posted a minor 3.1.6 update for Mac only to fix an issue where "Copy To" and "Move To" commands were not updating the destination recipe folder view properly if that view was not visible.

I'm unable to print when I select "send printouts to default browser/text viewer".  The error message I get is in the attached image.





"Safari can't open the page "...long string w/ localhost address..." because Safari can't connect to the server "localhost".

What do I need to do to correct this issue?

Using Beersmith 3.1.06

I think I have found the solution for the "print to browser" problems in 3.1.  I am working a fix for version 3.1.7 which I hope to have out soon.  I have a few other bugs I'm trying to consolidate as well.

Thanks,
Brad

There is a problem with dry hopping from old recipes opened in 3.1. I have some that have dry hops listed for 5 days, which was all you could specify in older versions. When I open these recipes in 3.1 the dry hops are listed as "dry hop for 5 days, 3 days before bottling". Since the previous versions didn't specify when the dry hops were to be added, I don't know where the "3 days before bottling" came from, and I'm not sure what the default should be, but that isn't it!

I had to pick some default, and days before bottling seemed reasonable.  Once you import into 3.1 you can change it to
any phase or time that you wish.

I'm looking forward to trying out 3.1.  Is there an updated release date for the Linux platform?

[BeerSmith]

Yes - the Linux update is in testing now and should be out shortly.

Thanks for adding Tilt to the build!

Any thought to using ?grams? for dry yeast instead of ?package??  It might not be common across the hobby but I use Lallemand?s pitch rate calculator which rarely recommends the weight of one package.

Again, thx for the great product!

Still not able to print in 3.1.07 on Mac running MacOS 10.15.6.  See attached error message from browser (Safari).  What might I be doing wrong?

[beerprof]

First, are you sure you're using 3.1.07? I only ask because I'm running 3.1.07 on OSX 10.15.6, same as you and don't have a problem. I thought the "localhost" issue was resolved with this update as indicated by the fact that if I send output to the default browser, it says file:// not localhost. Granted my default browser is Firefox and not Safari, but I don't think that's a problem.

edit: just tried sending to Safari and it worked just fine.

Yes, confident.

For printing, some print drivers have issues.  Try going to Options->Reports and check the Print to Browser box which will send printouts to the browser where you have more control over scaling, margins and printing.
