Fixed package is 0.0.1-0.20021202.9. Needs translating though; how do I get that done? Not really sure what to suggest about translation; not clear to me how we are handling that for GNOME local change this time around for translation. Two other comments: - The packing of the dialog buttons is rather odd - there is no space between them. How are you creating the dialog? - is there any way we can get printman to refresh the list of printers after redhat-config-printer-gui is done? It's cool that it runs the tool, but then lame when the new printer isn't listed there. Translation is done by putting your source on elvis CVS server, and notifying redhat-i18n-list, usually. pgampe is the guy to ask for details. I'm creating the dialog with gnome_ok_cancel_dialog_modal_parented. Is that the wrong thing to use? 0.0.1-0.20021202.10 reloads the print queues after running the config tool. You want gtk_message_dialog_new(): http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.2/gtk/GtkMessageDialog.html#gtk-message-dialog-new gnome_dialog_* is legacy stuff. Okay, fixed in CVS. Today, I attempted to change the printer properties while it was printing. The Printer Configuration Tool returned the message:"Media tray empty!". Not only is this incorrect, it is also misleading (e.g. in the case of a remote printer on a LAN). I would suggest that the message should be changed to "printer IN USE". Please don't bundle different issues into the same bug report; it means they can't be tracked properly. Instead, open a separate report for the issue you've seen please. Many thanks. |
On new install, you have the printman icon sitting there. You double click on it, you get an error message, you have to go to the menus to find out where to configure your printer Making the dialog be along the lines of: No printers found. Run the printer configuration tool? [ Cancel ] [ COnfigure ] Would be a very nice.
