216893 - Page Setup->Scale Information is not saved

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Printing, defect)

Description

[Thomas Schmid]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030718
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030718

Mozilla does not save the scale info.

All the other settings from the Page Setup Dialog have an entry in the
userpref.js to override the default settings, except the scale.

This is quit annoying for me because, I have to print most of my mails at 50% of
the original size. So I have to reset the scale every time I start Mozilla.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Go to File -> Page Setup and then change the scale information. 
Shutdown & restart Mozilla go again to Page Setup-> Scale

Actual Results:  
You will discover that the scale settings are not saved. 


Expected Results:  
It should not reset the scale to the default value.

I'm also seeing this behavior in Firefox 1.0PR under Windows XP (Mozilla/5.0
(Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10). Annoying,
since a lot of the web pages I print come out a little too wide on my printer,
and I have to manually reset this to 80% every session. Should I file a separate
bug for this?

Same problem with MozillaThunderbird.

I've also tried to find an option in 'about:config' to save config about page
scaling manually. Does anyone know if it's possible to create a new one to store
informations?

sorry for the spam.  making bugzilla reflect reality as I'm not working on these bugs.  filter on FOOBARCHEESE to remove these in bulk.

It seems as if this bug is fixed in the meantime. The scale information is saved with Firefox Build 2007061904...

therefore I would request to close this bug
