Question

Hello, Our developers are constantly printing cases from their browsers as they add them, and adding them to our physical Kanban board.

The browser's default to printing the cases on the normal 8 1/2 x 11 paper which is then awkwardly folded to fit on the board.

Is there a way to force the case to be printed on the normal paper, but constraining the print area to 3" x 5" ( or whatever?).

Thanks!

Answer 1

Please stop wasting trees and toner. There is a kanban board plugin for FogBugz.

Yes, you can use BugMonkey to create your own CSS printing rules for cases.

@media print {
  body { font-size: 10pt }
}

This can be used to suppress certain parts of the case and shrink the rest. You should be able to get it down to 3x5.

This is a pure bug in FB. It is a huge PITA.
