--- Comment #5 from [email protected] --- (In reply to Gustavo Mitamura from comment #3) > This is more of a wishlist, but what you're trying to do is to replicate in > KDE a Windows feature. I didn't know it was a Windows feature, but it's a good feature imo. Why involve third party apps, a bunch of headaches, for something that could be so small and that is quite common ! I mean, I often print more than one file at least. > I don't think either GNOME or KDE have this.

That feature also requires GIMP installed, so heavier. Honestly ? When I just want to add a bunch of selected files to the printing queue, needing 600mb of software isn't what I'd call ideal. Especially given that Digikam freaking destroyed the scaling on my images, but that's another matter lol. > > You could create a service menu, though.

Yes but see I don't want to merge all the files in a PDF and print the 1 PDF, I want whatever files I have selected to be each added to the printing queue ! And while someone on reddit also talked of a custom menu entry, the only thing I gather from it is that it is then possible to do it and that it would be a nice feature to have added. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
