If you click the 'options >>' button in the printing dialog and then the 'text
settings' tab, you will see that there is a checkbox labeled 'print selection
only', which is checked pr default if you have a selection.
Okay, I see the option, but it is not selected automatically when I have a
region selected. If it was , that would be exactly what I'm after. But its a
bit obscure, if I have to check it myself.
I'm using Kate in 3.5-alpha1.

We'll have to look into why not then, that is how i designed it :)
Uh, perhaps I have broken that, as in 3.5 the selection moved to the views, or? I had someone else try it in Kate 2.4 on KDE 3.4.0 - on the same OS. That
print option is also not selected there when a selection region is active in
Kate.

In KDE4, selecting text causes the print range 'Selection' radio button to be enabled in the dialog and choosing this prints only the selected text, but I think the original request was that in the print dialog that the Selection radio button be defaulted to on if text is selected. If desired, this can be achieved by adding: if ( doc->activeView()->selection() ) printer.setPrintRange(QPrinter::Selection) just after creating the QPrinter but before creating the QPrintDialog in KatePrinter::print. Don't have a KDE3 install to check behaviour under that. Git commit dfe7c2b6353d9e6ebef5469818ca9b544b27ea44 by Dominik Haumann. Committed on 11/08/2011 at 17:56.
