Print: Image does not fill the canvas (with screenshots)

Open rekcodocker opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug

I try to print an image on A4 paper. It is cropped to A4 format. It does not scale to fill the paper.

Removing the image, creating a new image area - nothing helps. Creating a smaller image area will fill the imagearea with the picture. But when I drag sides of the image larger, to fill the A4 paper, the image stops scaling with it again.

Nothing I do lets the image fill the entire paper, not selecting other paper sizes, playing around with borders, nothing in the userinterface of the print module works to fill the paper.

It is clearly a bug. I found this workaround: When I rotate the image and print in portrait, it does fill the paper.

Steps to reproduce

I can provide the image and XMP if you like. It is a simple JPeg and I cropped it and did a small retouch.

Expected behavior

Fill the entire canvas when printing.

It behaves different between portrait and landscape. Note that I must rotate the image for that.
