GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 587904
Move page setup to Print... menu
Last modified: 2021-06-09 20:42:31 UTC
Please describe the problem: I've just upgraded to Planner 0.14.4 and the printing (now using GTK+) seems much better - thanks! But I can no longer see a way to set it to landscape mode. (This didn't work properly before, so it's not a regression). Should there be a Page Setup menu option? Or should the Page Setup tab in the Print box grow an option for landscape mode? Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a plan 2. Go to print it 3. Footle around the print dialog box looking for landscape option Actual results: No landscape option found Expected results: A landscape option is found! Does this happen every time? Yes Other information: This is on Ubuntu 9.04 using Planner 0.14.4. The printer is an HP LaserJet PostScript printer over a network, though I doubt that makes any difference. The option appears to be absent whether trying to print to PDF file, PS file or to the printer.
There's a "File, Page Setup..." dialog that allows you to set orientation (and it works here) so that bug is invalid. However, GTK+ 2.17.4 introduced a combo box in the GtkPrintUnixDialog, so that would appear in our "File, Print..." dialog in the "Page setup" tab. Gedit used to have the same "File, Page Setup..." dialog as we do currently, but they removed it (http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gedit/commit/?id=b31143c7985a794f56739f2b6b83721eeccbe004). I think we should do the same, so I'm keeping this bug report open as a tracker for this task. Documentation for the needed code is available at http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/GtkPrintUnixDialog.html#gtk-print-unix-dialog-set-embed-page-setup
