Hello Vladimir,

I just noticed yet more strange behaviour related to gschem's status bar
and sidebar problems:

1. Click on a .sch file to open it in gschem.
[gschem opens the file with the sidebar and the status bar visible]
2. Choose File -> Print
3. Select 'Print to File', PDF format
4. Adjust the default name to reflect the project's name(*)
5. Click Print.

And ... nothing happens. No PDF file appears.

6. Close either the sidebar or the status bar; or trigger the window
redraw bug, and click/scroll in the main viewport.
7. The PDF file now appears after all.

Perhaps this gives some more clues.

*: It would be nice if the 'Print to file' name reflected the .sch name
already, instead of the generic Print name -- but OK, that's a minor
annoyance.

Best regards,

Richard Rasker
