Can't change printing page size

[mentanto]

Hi!
I have updated recently to new version and I can't change the paper size in the preview printer view.
Draw preferences->print->page. I change, for example, A4 ->A3 size and there is no effect.

Tentatively I can solve the problem opening an old .dxf file that is configured with the paper size that i want print. I delete all and copy all my new drawing.Then I can print with the size that I want.

Thanks!

My system is:

Hi mentanto,

thanks! I checked it on Win10 and I have the same problem. Could you please file a bug report below

http://www.ribbonsoft.com/bugtracker/

Thank you.

As a workaround you can use a layout block with a viewport (recommended in QCAD >= 3.19).

Hi guys,
Same behavior with Win 7
However if I do it within the viewport function the paper can be changed , but the status is not memorized when you try again in the main drawing
