Hi again,
As well as localization I also do some printing support in KDE, so I'm also
looking at improving the current state of the Qt printing, and already have
some patches to submit. So again I want to ask what other Qt users are
missing and would like to see supported in Qt5.
The areas KDE wants to work on include:
* Advanced page handling such as multiple page ranges ("1-3,5,8-9") and page
sets (odd/even pages) (all platforms)
* Add support for more Cups options to the X11 dialog
* Saving/restoring print settings (all platforms)
* Direct file printing (probably OSX and X11 only)
* See if setOptionTabs() can be extended to OSX and Windows (feature supported
by the Win/OSX native dialogs, but deriving a common api may be tricky)
Any other ideas?
Cheers!
John.
