Print Option "Vanishing"

Bronkster

This just started recently, and is - so far - limited to a part of Ebay. When the print window opens, the "layout" option is there for a moment, then disappears. Since I need to adjust from landscape to portrait, I kinda need that option. Specifically, this happens in the "Order Details", "Printer Friendly" section. Other sites - and most of Ebay - still works fine. I have no clue why it would suddenly change for that particular function of Ebay. Already tried turning off the few extensions with no luck. Any ideas??

How can we reproduce this?

Specifically, it's in Purchase History, View Order Details, then selecting "Printer friendly page". Is that what you're asking?

@bronkster Oh, ok, can be tested only if logged in. I have no ebay account.

Ah, yeah - you would need an account AND have to have bought something. Thanks for trying!

Hi, I check it and I have to use Microsoft print to PDF as I don´t have a printer connected to my laptop.
There is "More settings" with system print dialogue and there you can change to portrait.

Really complicated but it is the same with Chrome, I use Windows 11.
I cant see the layout function at all.

What you're showing is what I am now getting. What I should be seeing - and still see on other functions is this:

Again. the Layout option appears for a quick moment before vanishing. But it used to always be there for this function; I've used it since back when Vivaldi changed the printer options to this format.

Thanks for your input!

I checked on my main system on Ebay in purchase history with a real printer and don´t see the Layout option (not even for a second), I have to use Ctrl+Shift+P to open the system print dialogue.
I test this with Chrome and got the same "problem".

You can report it as a bug, I guess some developers have Ebay accounts to reproduce it but if something has changed in the Chromium source they cant fix it.

For information on how to report a bug, see this URL: https://vvld.in/how-to-report-bugs
Once that is done, please share the bug number (beginning with VB-).

I hadn't tried the Ctrl+Shift+P option, so I did. It gave the options of portrait or landscape (yay), so I went with portrait - and it still printed landscape! bangs head on desk

I might report a bug later, but will wait and see if someone has a genius reason for this happening. Thanks!

Have the same issue with a pdf of a gift voucher. It insists on printing in Landscape mode. Have to resort to Firefox in order to get a voucher that fits in my wallet !
