Description
|
What item is changable on printDialog and pageDialog, is
platform dependent.
There are,
- items which is changable only on dialogs.
- items which is changable only in program.
- items which is changable by dialg and program.
In this situation, we can't make user interface
which has enough item and not has duplicated item.
If we recognize which item is changable on runtime,
we can make adaptive user interface. and avoid
confusing duplicated items or items which are shown
but has no effect.

Since the 1.1 printing API now supports a cross-platform print dialog, this
RFE is implemented for that API. Once the 2D printing API adopts the cross-
platform print dialog, and implements a cross-platform page setup dialog, this
RFE can be closed. Reassigning to 2D.

===============================================
Native Printer dialogs on platforms such as win32 are often customised for
a particular printer. We can try to match to the common options but its
doubtful that very printer-specific options are likely to be supportable.
We need to have dialogs which are consistent across platforms - ie support
the same set of features and support all features which can be set through API.
Separate RFE's address the issues of adding extra APIs to support features
currently not addressed through APIs (eg printer selection, tray selection,
destination of file or printer).
NB specific selections may always be unvailable if a printer does not support it
