Bug #: 47583 Summary: PRINTING: Behaviour of Writer Print Options are not Transparent Classification: Unclassified Product: LibreOffice Version: LibO 3.5.0 Release Platform: Other OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Status Whiteboard: BSA Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Writer AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: harald-koes...@htp-tel.de Problem description: In order to illustrate the problem some steps: [1] Start LibreOffice and open a new text document. [2] Display general print options: Tools > Options... > LibreOffice Writer > Print. Keep in mind at least one setting of a print option. Then "Cancel". [3] Display print options of current document: File > Printer Settings... > Options... The displayed options correspond with the general print options. [4] Change one option, then OK and again OK. [5] Display general print options again: Tools > Options... > LibreOffice Writer > Print. The changed option of Step [4] is also changed here. Expectation: No change of general print option. Go on with Cancel. [5] Open a second new text document. [6] Display general print options again: Tools > Options... > LibreOffice Writer > Print. The change of step [4] is not displayed here. It took me some time to understand this behaviour: The changed setting in step [4] does not change the general option, as it looked like in step [5]. Hence the settings are OK, but the display is wrong in step [5]. That means print properties of the current file are displayed in step [5]. Proposal in order to make the behaviour more transparent: Insert a heading to the option category 'LibreOffice Writer > Print': "Initial Print Options of new Documents". And of course print options of current documents should not longer displayed in the general options dialog. Hints: (a) See also bug 47572. (b) In bug 43786 and bug 47303 I described similar problems with options, which are used as a property of a document. Problem also observed with Version 3.4.5.
