Plot axes not matching with graphs when copying to clipboard or saving as .png

[bw-01]

What's wrong?
When saving a distribution plot image as a .png file or copying it to the clipboard and pasting, the image axes do not align with the plot data. I've tested this on two PCs and experienced the same outcome.

How can we reproduce the problem?
Zip file containing my .ows and data file: A2.zip

On a Windows PC, create a distribution plot and either go to Edit > Copy Image to Clipboard then paste it into another application such as Word, or save the distribution as a .png file and open that.

What's your environment?

• Operating system: Windows 11 Pro 10.0.22621 Build 22621
• Orange version: 3.35.0
• How you installed Orange: From the installer

Thanks. We've seen something similar multiple times: #5697 and #2887 (at least). But here we seem to be dealing with something new.

Could you inform us what is your screen resolution, size, and what the scaling setting is your system? Also, do you use multiple screens? If so, does the problem persist if you only have one screen connected?

[bw-01]

No problem. I did see #5697 so already did a few tests to see if it might be that (hence why I also checked on my laptop since it only has a single screen). This looks to be a new issue though, as far as I can tell.

My main setup has dual 1440p monitors at 144Hz, no scaling. My laptop has a single 2400x1600 screen, 150% scaling. Both exhibit the problem. Saving as an .svg or .pdf works ok, it's limited to copying or saving as .png.

Thanks for the info. @ZanMervic was able to reproduce the bug locally on his Windows laptop.

I think it is connected to pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph#1250

I do not have a windows machine right now, but I suspect changes in biolab/orange-widget-base#208 or biolab/orange-widget-base#246.

If this is the only issue blocking the release, we could also ignore it for now.

[markotoplak]

This bug was introduced in biolab/orange-widget-base#246, which means widget-base 4.21.0 was problematic. And Orange 3.35.0 installers.

@AmewsSoft, @WolframRinke, this was just solved in orange-widget-base and will be available in orange-widget-base 4.22, which means with 3.36 official installers for most users.

Who installed manually will need to update orange-widget-base to 4.22, which will be available soon.

Hi Marko, thank you for this update, but it is still not matching the graph as shown in the widget, though it looks better. 😉 Kind regards, Wolfram [signature_2890823524] Dipl.-Ing.

@WolframRinke, thanks for testing. Could you show us differences in a screenshot?

[WolframRinke]

Hi Marko, attached you will find 3 screenshots showing this issue: Picture 1 as shown in the widget: [Ein Bild, das Screenshot, Text, Software, Zahl enthält. Automatisch generierte Beschreibung] Picture 2 as shown in the Report: [Ein Bild, das Text, Software, Zahl, Computersymbol enthält. Automatisch generierte Beschreibung] Picture 3 as shown when saving as PNG file: [Ein Bild, das Screenshot, Text, Diagramm, Zahl enthält. Automatisch generierte Beschreibung] Picture 4 what is shown as PDF: [Ein Bild, das Software, Computersymbol, Multimedia-Software, Computer enthält. Automatisch generierte Beschreibung] I hope that helps. Kind regards, Wolfram

[WolframRinke]

Attached you will find the OWS file, that I used for the test plots. Kind regards, Wolfram

[markotoplak]

@WolframRinke, thanks, but it seems that if send images in an email, they do not get through. Could you please login into github and attach them here?

[WolframRinke]

You are right, sorry. I put it in a PDF file. I will do it later on GitHUB. Cheers, Wolfram

here are the missing files.

Thanks, yes, I confirm the problem. Could you show me which packages do you have? Can you open Orange command prompt (there is an icon in the start menu for it) and type pip freeze and then paste the output here.
