Description Grzegorz Wierzchowski 2015-01-03 18:17:28 UTC
Please add option to print multiply pictures on one page with some additional flexibility - like 2, 4 or 9 pictures on page. Please see as reference eg. respective option in Windows 7 - cite from Win help: 
"Can I print several different pictures on a single page? Yes. 
To print several smaller pictures on one page, right-click the pictures you want, and then click Print. 
You'll see a preview of your picture in the Print Pictures dialog box. 
Depending on the number of pictures you're printing, 
you might use more than one sheet of paper."
Currently even if I select in Gwenview print oprion 2 or 4 or ... pages per sheet it stil prints one picture on page (and just one picture at all).
In Gwenview there is a nice view of multiply pictures on screen (the ones selected in bottom thubnails). If being in this mode one would select print option it would be ideal if those pictures were selected for printing, and then user could choose layout (2, 4, 9, ... pictures on page). E.g if user selected 8 pictures and cheese layout 4/page it would get 2 pages of 4 pictures on each.

I frequenly print some graphics for my kids to school and I'm currently using LO Writer to layout pictures on page and then print from there. Adding this option to Gwenview would be faster and more convenient and would also eliminate gap in functionality with Windows system.



Reproducible: Always
