Heiko Tietze <tietze.he...@gmail.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Keywords|needsUXEval | --- Comment #8 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.he...@gmail.com> --- What meaning does it have when you print based on a database with a selection of entries and then limit the output to a specific page? I mean you print from 1 to 2 in the attached file, which creates four pages, and why would you want to actually print only the first 3 pages? Is there a use case? If there is a good reason you may go with the suggestion (removing UX). Otherwise my personal choice would be to not implement this option. You may face issues for the implementation when, for instance, from/to is set to some value and the page count has to get updated reliably. Btw1: <strikethrough>I don't see how "Selected records" can be enabled.</strikethrough> The first column should indicate that it may get selected; or multiselection is possible per ctrl/shift (selecting the whole column). Btw2: Like "Print to PDF" (bug 86668) the Preview does not deal with the fact of fields in the document. On the other hand, if there is no good use case for Print to PDF or Preview without merging the db fields we could disable the functions and make them available in the mail merge dialog as Preview next to Ok, and PDF as part of output = file (exists). Btw3, "Explorer off" by default makes the dialog easier to understand (you should know what table is being used in this document). And stripping edit functions would also streamline the user experience. Not sure if editing is needed shortly before the document is going to the printer. Rather you put more effort in the filter because after closing the overlay dialog you have no clue about the actual filter parameter. Btw4: Sorry for the delay. Shouldn't take two years to get an answer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
