[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #42458] fltk print doesn't produce file if window is minimized in XFCE or LXDE

[Ben Abbott]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #42458 (project octave):

GL2PS works by capturing the contents of the OpenGL feedback buffer
(http://www.geuz.org/gl2ps/#tth_sEc5). 

My understanding is that this means the OpenGL figure must be rendered, and I
assume that whether or not this happens depends upon the operating system,
and/or window manager.  If the virtual desktop is not rendered when it is not
visible, then I don't think the print() command will function.  If the OpenGL
figure isn't rendered when it is minimized, then I don't think the print()
command will function.
