127810 - Enable UI for zoom, print, and landscape/postscript on Unix once we can

(Core :: Print Preview, defect)

Description

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Once the back-end issues with device contexts are worked out, the UI for various
print preview things should get re-enabled.

Shouldn't the Subject read ENABLE?

Bug 119491 is targetted for mozilla1.1 so I will target this bug aggressively
for mozilla1.1 as well.

I filed a new patch for bug 127699 which adds a logic to disable/enable the GUI
based on the "print.whileInPrintPreview" prefs value (see bug 127699 comment
#18).

Therefore the fix for this issue is a simple
|user_pref("print.whileInPrintPreview", true);| in unix.js once bug 119491
("Cleanup global vars in PostScript and Xprint modules") has been fixed.

very inconvenient to print, if not fix.
I escalate it to nsbeta1.

Comment 8

Fixed as part of current work in bug 187125 - PrintPreview's toolbar is now
enabled again if the underlying device code supports multiple device instances
(this is true for the Xprint module, the PostScript module may likely never be
fixed).

Marking bug as FIXED.
