Hi, maxplm.
As for me, I am testing the related word qr code generation projects these days. Do you have any ideas about it? Or any good suggestion? I am totally a green hand on barcode generating field. Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It says "fixed" on Github, but it still does not work on 1.8.1 on Mac OS.

Client version: 1.8.1
Mac OS Version: 10.7.5

Clicking "Save" on the QR code does exactly nothing.

We still need to wait for the 1.9 release that is around the corner

This is the first time that I have run into a bug in Electrum. It is non-critical but needs to be fixed.

This is the error it shows when hitting the Save button in the QR code window.

Code:

$ cd /Applications/Electrum.app/Contents/MacOS
$ ./electrum
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Applications/Electrum.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/gui/gui_classic.py", line 1542, in print_qr
    bmp.save_qrcode(qrw.qr, filename)
  File "/Applications/Electrum.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/gui/bmp.py", line 206, in save_qrcode
    if qr.isDark(r-1, c):
  File "/Applications/Electrum.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/gui/pyqrnative.py", line 54, in isDark
    raise Exception("%s,%s - %s" % (row, col, self.moduleCount))
Exception: 0,29 - 29

Reported on github ( https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/275 ), thanks

Electrum 1.8.1 portable can generate QR codes for contact addresses, but when Save is clicked, nothing happens. It should be saved as qrcode.bmp.

This has worked fine in Electrum 1.7.
