Re: [platform-swt-dev] Printing content of BrowserWidget

[Christophe Cornu <Christophe_Cornu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Tom,

I've opened https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=64968
to capture your request - please vote for it. The browser uses the same
native rendering engine as IE or Mozilla - it does not embed the full IE
or Mozilla executable itself. Full popup support and printing were not
exposed for the initial 3.0 release. We will need to look into your suggestion
post 3.0.

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,
that's not really what I meant. I want to print the HTML-Page rendered
inside the Browser-Widget, not the widget itself. I'd expect that the 
browser used inside the widget renders/prints the HTML-Page, so  it
should be possible to print the content and on win32 with IE it's 
working as expected.

If you e.g. load an HTML-File on Win32 you can, click with the right 
mouse in the Browser-Window and the normal IE-Context-Menu pops up 
that's not the case on Mozilla. When pressing CTRL+P on Win32 the normal
Print-Dialog pops up and you can print the HTML-File that's also not 
possible on Linux with Mozilla.

Tom
