Description crxssi 2013-02-28 19:40:08 UTC
In OpenOffice Calc, when a range is selected and then Print File Directly is activated, a dialog would appear and ask the user "Do you want to print the selection or the entire document?".  

In LibreOffice this dialog does not appear and it immediately prints the whole sheet or document without asking the user.  This appears to be a regression from a better past behavior.

Also- in both LibreOffice and OpenOffice Calc, when a range is selected and the regular print function is activated, it still defaults to "Selected sheets" instead of "Selected cells."  It might be better if it changes to "Selected cells" just to be more friendly.  Generally, when a user has a range selected and then performs an action (such as print), they mean for it to only happen to the selected range.

Will attach a screenshot of the missing dialog.

It would appear my bug report is a duplicate of gug 54908 which I discovered exists today.

However, I think my report is better :)
