[rt-users] Printing Charts

[April Rosenberg]

Thanks.  It took me a bit to get it to work with my directory structure,
but I am now able to print charts.

The print stylesheet is specifically hiding all content on the Charts
page, but I'm not sure why.  It's a holdover from an older print
stylesheet (before the new one in 4.0.5), and I suspect it's a mistake and
hiding too much by accident.

Try applying this patch:

   curl -s https://github.com/bestpractical/rt/commit/ed77c63.patch \
       | patch -p1 -d /opt/rt4

and then clearing your Mason cache and restarting RT.  You'll need to
clear your browser cache (or force reload the page) as well since it will
aggressively cache the print styles.

I expect the patch above will be in the next release of RT.
