Description ell1e 2010-02-11 17:38:38 UTC

Description of problem:

Eye Of Gnome insists on US letter format in File>Print>Page Setup (it is not just the default setting but the combo box is also grayed out and doesn't allow for a change to e.g. A4) although System>Administration>Printing, in the properties of the respective printer, the format is set to A4. The printer is a Kyocera FS 1920, an A4 grayscale printer.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Eye of GNOME 2.28.2

How reproducible:

100%


Steps to Reproduce:

1. Setting locale to en_US
2. Plug in Kyocera printer and set printer format setting to A4 in System>Administration>Printing
3. Open an image in Eye Of Gnome and check format in File>Print...>Page Setup
  
Actual results:

Setting is not only set per default to US letter but even forced to it.

Expected results:

Paper size is set to A4 or at least allows switching to it.

There is a separate page setup dialog which lets you change paper formats.
Eog should probably switch to the combined print+page-setup dialog that GTK+ offers nowadays.

Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2010-07-02 09:21:09 UTC

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

> There is a separate page setup dialog which lets you change paper formats.

I'd like to note that this really wasn't obvious to me as a user and I simply ended up being unable to print anything using Eye of Gnome because I was unable to submit a format to the printer that worked (since the setting was greyed out and how would I know it has to be changed at some other place instead where that setting magically ISN'T greyed out. Normally you'd expect a setting to work everywhere you're able to find it and not just at some of the places, whereas it's simply greyed out at others).

Comment 4 Siddhesh Poyarekar 2010-09-15 13:03:02 UTC

This has been fixed upstream and in f-14. Backported for F-12 here:

I'll be pushing this for testing once it is done.

Also, backport for f-13:
