[mapguide-internals] RFC Review - RFC 96: QuickPlot solution for both Ajax and Fusion viewers

[Jason Birch]

You forgot the part about PDF support! :)

Seriously, I have a few questions:

- what is the output format for quickplot? I understand that the
preview window will show layout; is the output the same html+png as
the current print widget, but with higher dpi image?

- sounds like there may be a dependency between fusion and the ajax
viewer for this function. If so, please work to avoid this. These
viewers should be able to be individually removed from a production
install to limit attack surface area.

- I wonder if there is a way to shape this enhancement so that it
replaces the current print function instead of adding a new one? Maybe
have it open the task pane first, with optional area-select button,
title, dpi, and print button at bottom? Ideally, would allow selecting
sheet size, portrait/landscape, and format as well, but I know that's
stretching it a bit...
