Bug ID: 369572
Summary: Regression kMail 5.3.1 QtWebEngine: HTML mail printing
not possible if plain text view is preferred over HTML
Product: kmail2
Version: 5.3.1
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
Reporter: kdeb...@customcdrom.de
I configured my kMail to prefer plain text content over HTML.
Since upgrading to a QtWebEngine based version, it's impossible to print HTML
mails. This is a major issue, as nowadays most mails are only readable and
printable if HTML is enabled.
1) I click the mail, which will be shown in plain text view.
2) I enable HTML rendering by clicking the corresponding link in the mail's
header.
3) I enable loading of external references / images, if required.
4) I chose "print mail". A dialog pops up which informs me that QtWebEngine
does not yet support printing and an external browser will be used.
5) I chose "Open in Browser" and the external browser will open, *showing the
mail's plain text contents*... (With no way to switch on HTML rendering, of
course...)
Expected:
The external browser shoul show the mail the way it's currently displayed in
the mail view at the time the print command was invoked.
Reproducible: Always
