 I'll add it to Easy hacks too, when you start working on it, please mark
 it in the wiki page that you are working on it:
 
 http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Easy_Hacks#Print_current_page

Kendy, I had a look at the old functionality and felt free to add some
more information on that page - including some links to the
printerpullpages specification I've wrote for OOo. I hope that's okay,
because it adds even more info on that page.

Cheers,
Christoph

[Libreoffice] New feature: print current page

2011-02-11 Thread Tobias Ollmann
Hi all!

I'm rather new here, so I don't know if something similar has already
been posted. But I'm missing a very important feature in the printing
dialog, namly an option to print the current page only.

Are there plans to implement something like that?

Regards,
Tobias

The old behaviour in OOo was
 - select option Pages, that default to the current page.
WHich is what you want.

With the new Printer Dialog, you can select Pages, but nor does it show 
the current page, nor does it get the focus,

IMO two usability bugs.

Not that I am aware of.
But improving the behaviour in the current dialog would do too, IMO.

Cor

True. Funnily, that is what I've originally wrote:
Group Range and copies: Slightly improved layout which is
based on the original printing dialog, since we have to respect
our existing user base. [1]

Seems that the original behavior hasn't been preserved :-\

Correct. Concerning the latter, I somehow remember that this was in
discussion and I have been overruled.
