GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 531898
Printing paper orientation should default based on image dimensions
Last modified: 2012-04-29 18:50:06 UTC
It gets annoying having to always change the page-setup when I want to print screen-shots and photos and other landscape orientated images full-page. Surely the orientation of the printed version should be based on which would print the largest image on the paper? Other information: Bug is downstream in ubuntu (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog/+bug/200401)
I also have this bug in EOG 2.22.3 in Ubuntu Hardy (and it lasts since almost 2 or 3 versions of Ubuntu). When printing a landscape-oriented photo on a printer, the picture should be automatically rotated as it's done in f-spot or DigiKam for example.
Created attachment 213043 [details] [review] Patch to fix this bug Now, the default paper orientation in print settings is based on image size.
