Description David H. Gutteridge 2017-06-18 18:58:16 UTC

When trying to print a document on "US Legal" size paper rather than "US Letter", I'm simply unable to do so. Umbrello doesn't seem to honour or retain that setting, though it does retain a change from portrait to landscape orientation in the same print options widget.

1. Choose Print->Current Diagram->Properties.
2. Change Orientation to "Landscape".
3. Change Paper to "US Legal".
4. Print or click "Cancel".
5. In either case of 4, repeat step 1, and note that Orientation has persisted as "Landscape", while Paper has reverted to the default (with my settings) "US Letter". Note what prints is not what was selected. Same with PDF output. Both still end up as "US Letter".

(I'm using 2.21.3, I can't comment on the 2.22 series, though I looked through the change logs and didn't see anything relevant listed.)

With "Version 2.35.2 (Applications 22.08.2)", this is different than before. I am now able to change the page size and it is reflected if I print immediately, where that did not work for me before. (The navigation to get to the feature is different now.) However, the reproduction steps I supplied still hold if "cancel" is selected instead. The document still retains the orientation change, but does not retain the paper size change. Not sure how significant one would consider that, but it is a little counterintuitive that one setting change would be retained and another one not.
