<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">Who'd a \
thunk it? Your suggestion of skipping the workbook and going straight to a \
spreadsheet works! I can print and export plots, and the saved project will \
reload with all my plots present. When the plots are inside a workbook, the \
print and export options do nothing.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">Yeah, it \
would be nice to have the current version, but I don't see an easy way to do it \
until some Fedora maintainer gets around to building a new package.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">Many thanks \
for your help.</p>

<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">> we had \
a problem with restoring the connections to columns in spreadsheets that are part of \
a workbook. This bug is already fixed but I think it's still present in the \
version you're using. To workaround this problem now without upgrading to the \
most recent version (should be the preferred way, though) is to create a \
"stand-alone" spreadsheet. So, just create a new spreadsheet without the \
workbook and import your data.</p>

<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">> I have \

<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">> 1) \
When I save the project, the plots are NOT saved. Every time I open the \
project, I have to create the plots again. Who can I save plots?</p>

<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">> 2) \
Once the plots are created, I want to print them to PDF and export them to JPG. \
File-Print and File-Export do nothing. It is like clicking on /dev/null. \
There is no error, no windows pop up, nothing is printed ... How can I get \
these features to work? It is almost like LabPlot thinks there is nothing to \
print.</p>

<p style="margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;">> Snaps \
are not an option. The version of LabPlot in the snap library is 2.6.0 which \
does not have some of the features I need. Flatpaks are not an option because \
the flatpak package requires Wayland, and I cannot run that. The nVidia display \
driver does not work with Wayland. And as a matter of sensibility, the flatpak \
wants to install something like 2 gigabytes of stuff. WTF?????</p>
