Export templates: variable for filename chosen in filter dialog

<< < (3/3)

That you like 'em that much truly feels good...  :-*

Maybe it would be strange if you click on "print" in PVD and a "save as..." dialogue opens up instead of a printer dialogue...
So if you decide to add a print item that calls my export template (would be kind of a great honour to me, of course ;)), you might want to override the "save as..." dialogue and just export the file to temporary files instead... after clicking "print" the page would pop up in the user's default browser. I added a "Print" button to the exported page to make things more obvious.

By the way, and completely apart from this, I almost can't await PVD version 1. I'm sure it's quite a lot of work, though...

Yes, I would need a special handling for your templates :)

I hope it will be great. Unfortunately the work is not going too fast because of the lack of time :/

What have I started? :-X

I suggest the template configuration include a "Use as default print template" button. And yes, using the "Print" command should bypass the "save as" dialog and use a temporary location. The same template could still be used from the Export menu if one wants to print and save the report.

As always :)
