Description sdc.blanco 2020-10-15 07:55:02 UTC
1.  Tools > Options > Writer > Print
2.  Look at bottom-most control (in "Other" section)

Actual Result:  Fax

Expected result:  ?? 

1.  Tool tip (for Fax) and contents of drop-down box do not seem to match.
Maybe tooltip needs improvement?

2.  Shouldn't there be a ":" after Fax (or what replaces it)?

The missing semicolon is clearly a bug. But where do you see a tooltip?
I can only "fax" to my standard printer- I guess it's not so simple to know whether it has a phone line connection or not.

Of course you meant "colon"

See attachment.  Will show all the variations.

NB.  I have not tried to use this facility - so no opinion about functionality.
And maybe everything is supposed to be there and works as it is supposed to (except for missing colon).  But especially the tooltip for "fax" seemed "off" or "wrong".

Extended tips... for me with master it's "Specifies print settings..." in both cases. Olivier changed this recently in https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/99825 but apparently the extended tip was empty before. 

Anyway, I guess we agree all on the (not so semi) colon. One for you, Adolfo?

These two patches should take care of the "colon" problem, and the extended tooltip problem, so closing as FIXED
