You have been assigned a bug task for a public bug by Bilal Akhtar (bilalakhtar):
Binary package hint: gimp There is a possibility of embedding the paper size combo and orientation combo in the print dialog since Gtk+ 2.17.4. It is activated by calling the gtk_print_operation_set_embed_page_setup() function. It would be nice to have this feature also in the GIMP, as photos do not have an absolute size. You select the print size of a photo only when you actually print it and photos are often printed on sizes which are not the standard size of the printer (4x6 inches/10x15 cm). So the page size and orientation should be easily accessable during the printing action, which means that they are best placed in the printing dialog. To implement this one only needs a small patch doing the following things: - Remove the "Page Setup" menu entries (and toolbar buttons) - Remove call-back functions to open the "Page Setup" dialog - Add call of gtk_print_operation_set_embed_page_setup() function to initialization of print dialog - Add calls to load page setup setting on print dialog initialization and save them on OK/Print/Apply in print dialog (to remember next print dialog call or even next session).
