I like the functionality in the current stat of the CWS
printerpullpages.
But I did notice that if one has an odp open and chooses File->Printer
Settings->Options, one does not returns, as in spinning wheel forever.
Cheers,
Chuck

Hi,
as some of you may know printing is currently under revision to
a) improve the user interface on all platforms
b) make it more efficient especially on the mac
This effort is well underway, however the UI is not finalized yet
(and there is no spcification yet). For those interested I have
provided install sets of the current state of CWS printerpullpages at
ftp://qa-upload.services.openoffice.org/printerpullpages/
Especially the Users of MacOSX 10.5 could have a look since the
current state of the native print dialog must be improved before
integration; the current state is a backstep in so far as the native
mac print dialog does not show a preview anymore owing to the fact
that the same binary is suitable for MacOSX 10.4 also. We could
solve this by having a two step approach: have the print options we
add (and that result in the missing preview) appear in a first
dialog, followed by the native print dialog, which would then show a
preview again. The question is what is preferable to the Mac user.
Oh, and of course you can use our platform independent print dialog
on the mac as well as on all other platforms by enabling it in
OpenOffice.org->Preferences->General.
All non mac users are of course also invited to state your opinion.
Kind regards, pl
