Ctrl+P and CustomContextMenu

Post by lureyes »

I don't use the Print icon because I personally think it detracts from the webpage view. I have enabled the Ctrl+P shortcut and for it not to display the Print dialog and just print immediately. I also have a custom context menu which includes Print.

If I do Ctrl+P (or use the button, both work the same), it prints automatically without prompting me. However, if I right-click to open the context menu and click on Print, it takes me to the dialog screen and asks me to choose a printer to use.

Is there a way around this so that the context menu's Print option doesn't display the confirmation window?

Because the context menu is directly interacting with the underlying Internet Explorer the current version of PWB does the default Internet Explorer action.

However, we added new functionality to PWB that bypasses the default Internet Explorer action by mapping the Context Print menu item to the PWB Print button.

Although this version will probably not be released because PWB v2.10 is on the way, you can benefit from the added functionality now by downloading the following file, copying the new EXE over the old EXE, and adding the following to your INI file.

MapContextPrintToButton=True

To ensure you have the new PWB v2.09.4, the time on the EXE inside the zip file should be April 03, 2006 2:41PM.

You are amazing! I'm really liking this software now...

Time to get registered! This is definitely the right program to use from all the different ones I tried.

Scott, I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that your immediate support is highly appreciated.
