Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LO 4.3.1 print icon

Hi :)
Yeh, i kinda agree with MR ZenWiz on this.  I personally prefer to go the
File - Print
route precisely because of the reasons stated in the bug-report.

Similarly i prefer to do;
File - "Save As ..."
because i've just had so many times when users lose documents and have no
idea where to look - also so many times when programs have wanted to save
documents to strange tmp folders buried away in their own folder system.

However most normal users seem to love pressing those sorts of things and
being completely clueless about everything.  I also like them when i've
used them enough times to know what the results are likely to be.

Still my way of working might not suit other people and i don't think we
should force them into better habits against their will.
Regards from
Tom :)
