There should be an ability to select a file or multiple files and resources in the Navigator and other views which inherit from it for printing. By either highlighting several resources and clicking the print button from the toolbar/menubar or right clicking on a highlighted selection. If a folder or package is selected and the print button is clicked all the resources under that folder should be printed. The print dialog should indicate that multiple resources are being printed to give the user a chance to correct a mistake in the event of a miss click before all the files are sent to the printer. A view similar to the file system import dialog where folders and sub folders are shown and individual resources can be selected or excluded would be helpful in this situation. When the resources are printed in a batch mode they should use the print formatting from their associated editor. File types which can not be printed because their editor does not support printing should be excluded from these options. In situations where there are many files which need to be printed it is very tedious to open each individual file in an editor and then click the print button and then ok the print options. When several files need to be printed it is easy to make a mistake and miss one file while going down the list or to print some files twice.
It's a good idea, but we can't commit to this for 3.1.
Any possibliity of a commitment for 3.2?
Sorry, this is unlikely to make it for 3.2 either. A patch would help immensely, if you'd like to contribute.
