this has been the same since ages. please see the attached desktop video capture. the list of printers is in my opinion (a) refreshed too fast and (b) whatever is the sort algorithm for the order in the window, it's not stable, ie each time it produces a slightly different list of printers. it's extremely hard to select the correct printer below the point where it starts to deviate by each update. this is agonizing.
note that this is not limited to just the evince print dialog, as shown in the attachment. it affects all print dialogs of all the gtk applications. ** Attachment added: "desktop video illustrating the odd behavior." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1527147/+attachment/5000023/+files/evince-print_dialog.ogv -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1527147 Title: list of printers in print dialog jumps fast, hard to select a printer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1527147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
