--- Comment #53 from Callegar <[email protected]> --- @Eyal Rozenberg > that's a completely different (though worthy) feature request. Sometimes you > want to export a part of a larger page with more content than what's being > exported - that's why we have "export selection". Clearly, you are right. To my excuse, must say that, due to other bugs, to me "Export selection" has become synonymous of "Export with no solid background" (that is otherwise always inserted even if the page background is set to none), so I may have lost contact with the original use it was meant for ;-) I would say that for this use, reducing the PDF bounding box to the selection would almost always be what you want. I expect real world usage for exporting a part of a drawing so that it remains not centered in a much larger white page is probably low, is it? So if you add a tick, the logic could probably be better inverted (default for selection export is tight bounding box, tick to preserve page size when exporting selection). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
