--- Comment #15 from Rainer Meier <r...@bluemail.ch> 2012-05-11 14:29:55 PDT --- I don't think the issue on Mac has the same roots. On Mac LO seems not to do anything when selecting print from finder. Not even when only a single document is selected. On Windows there seem to be some "deadlock" issue between multiple instances started at the same time since one could see multiple soffice.bin/soffice.exe processes running which seem to block each other. On Windows this issue here only appears if multiple LO processes are started at the same time. LO prints just fine from context menu if only one single document is selected at a time. Maybe it would be possible to cause the same issue on Linux or Mac via a script which launches multiple LO instances with command-line arguments to load a document and print it immediately. It might be just a timing issue which causes some deadlock during detection if there is another instance running. Maybe LO tries to detect during document open whether there is already an instance or whether a new one should be launched. If the first instance is busy or not fully loaded it might cause a "split brain" situation where multiple instances which should not be launched in parallel exist and block each other. Although this is just wild guessing as I don't know the LO code yet but I've seen similar issues in other applications (also ones developed by myself). So I agree that the Mac issue should be filed as an independent report (incomplete finder integration, direct printing not working). Maybe it's just about finder integration to supply correct parameters to LO when it's launched by finder. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
