Description Jared 2013-03-26 23:47:58 UTC
Problem description: Two clicks are required to enter a page range in the Print dialog

Steps to reproduce:
1. Menu:File->Print...
2. In Print dialog box click the Print radio button
3. Tab over or click over to enter the range

Current behavior: Two clicks necessary

Expected behavior: To be able to click into the grayed-out range area directly (activating that option) would allow for a quicker process.
i.e. if one were to click into that range the system could assume that both a range is being requests and that a print range selection is desired rather than the "All" option.

              
Operating System: Windows 8
Version: 4.0.2.1 rc

Thanks for your enhancement request. This'll be indeed an improvement. Therefore I mark this as NEW.

For the developer who'll work on this issue, it should be worth it to contact UX-advice for their opinion.

Kind regards,
Joren

If this is accepted it would be great to see this across more areas in LibreOffice that are similar to this.
e.g. File->Export as PDF->Pages [range clickable]

In order to limit the confusion between ProposedEasyHack and EasyHack and to make queries much easier we are changing ProposedEasyHack to NeedsDevEval.

Thank you and apologies for the noise
