(i posted this 2 weeks ago and got no response. but i posted over the
weekend. i'm hoping someone might see it now who didn't see it then
and might have a response. thanx.)
i can't seem to get reverse page order printing to work
programmatically. i've tried calling
-[NSPrintOperation setPageOrder: NSDescendingPageOrder]
prior to calling:
-[NSPrintOperation runOperationModalForWindow: delegate:
didRunSelector: contextInfo: ];
and this didn't work.
i then tried running the print panel myself and in the
printPanelDidEnd delegate method calling setPageOrder and the
-[NSPrintOperaiont runOperation], again with no effect.
i would also like to be able to determine if the user has checked
reverse page order printing in the print panel, so i could set it as
the default for the next print operation, but i haven't been able to
figure out how to do that either, ie, if i examine the NSPrintInfo
passed to the delegate method:
-printOperationDidRun: success: contextInfo:
page order is set to 1 (NSAscendingPageOrder), even if i've done a
reverse page order print.
so... is it possible to programmatically determine the page order
requested by the user for a print job, and then set that as the
default for the next print job? (and thus i'm doing something wrong.)
or is this a (known) bug, ie, that setPageOrder, doesn't really do
anything?
thanx,
ken
