That was surely not my point :-). Fine with both options in one dialog. Never
pretended otherwise.
There are two problems IMHO
1) The usage of the radio button way (to make it possible to set settings for
either Printer or Print to file is atypical usage of radio button (on Windows,
as far I know). And the radio button is even not used this way in LibreOffice
that often. I'm more used to a drop down box. With disadvantage of 'hiding' to
printer from sight
2) There is no visual supporting effect when picking one of both. So you don't
notice you're in a 'different' dialog. Th
Yes, advantage of a radio button is both options are visible from the start.
However it's but atypical usage of radio button (on Windows, as far I know).
And not even the most common why used on LibreOffice either.
Yes, it's surely a detail :-).
And show you surprising my every time :-). I often get a feeling of some kind
of a "Reality distortion field"; I'm talking about A and I get not B or even C
but Z. What the heck.</pre>
