Hi All,

This bug describes that the printing of handouts doesn't respect the
"order of page"-option.

It seems some parts of the working of this already functions but the
default-option still is weird. It defaults to 6 slides and doesn't
respect the "order of page"-option it always prints vertically first.

I think it would be better to remove te default-option for the slides
and default to 6 slides with the "left to right then down" selected
for "order of page".

Anybody any thoughts on that?

It is a long history. It starts around this
"Enhance handout printing in impress"
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=85355

Then I noticed this bug
"Can no longer print handouts with customized size and arrangement of the preview objects"
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=94055

which leads to the "default" option in the print dialog. So no, do not remove the "default" option.

That the order cannot be set is an issue for its own, already know on OpenOffice.org: "Print order (horizontal/vertical) cannot be selected freely when printing multiple slides with Impress"
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=98598
"New print dialog ignores Order setting when printing handouts in Impress"
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=114442

As far as I understand the presets, it was intended, that the user cannot alter these. That does not mean, that a change of this behavior is not possible.

I have not tried it actually, but in "default" mode, setting the order should work.

Kind regards
Regina
