Showing prompt when printing resets orientation and number of copies about wxwidgets HOT 7 CLOSED

@Solosigi , what platform and wxWidgets version?

from wxwidgets.

I've tried to make the subject of this issue more intelligible, hopefully I understand the problem correctly (but it would still be indeed useful to know which platform do you use).

Unfortunately I don't have time to debug it now, but it looks like print data is getting overwritten somewhere. It shouldn't be hard to find (and hopefully not hard to fix neither) if somebody can look into it.

If you are running on Win11, there's an issue (system) where selecting LANDSCAPE will not work properly. (Same code works fine on Win10 - and I've seen many others comment about this with non-WX programs too). The only workaround currently is to popup the Windows print dialog and change the orientation there. Reading that orientation (so you can remember it) will work - it's just that it seems to be a read-only field now.

I use wxWidgets-2.3.4, Windows 11, Visual Studio 2022/64 Bit V. 17.9.5.
The problem is:
I have a Form. In this form i determin: number of copies, portrait/landscape, paper size (A4/A5...) and duplex.
If i do a preview or i print without prompt ("quite") all the prints are ok!
But if i print with prompt ("noice") the print is allways standard: number of copy = 1, allways protrait, no duplex.
It seems the guidelines from my form are not carried over.
In the prompt the user have to change all this predefind values.
