manual feeding/feeder

Asked by lucmars

One can use the "scan all page from the feeder" even if there's no feeder.

But in this case one has to follow the SS routine since one has to feed manually the platter !

In such case SS should behave in an other way by letting the user to do the next scan.

In fact the "single page" option is about manual feeding : as far as one doesn't required a new document one can do a multiple scan, for a multiple-page file to save in pdf.

Don't know if one does consider as a bug the option feeder enable even if one doesn't have one on the scanner or the all-in-one. At least the "artist" in mind can play with it. Personally I will play with it, from time to time.

Thought the actual dropdown menu is misleading since it launches the scan page mode while it should act as a selector as it does for the text/photo mode.

On the other hand, "single page aka manual feeding" and "all page frome the feeder" are related to the hardware : the scanner or the all-in-one got a feeder or not.

So it's a kind of logical value if one can assume that a scanner with feeder can also be fed manually, then there is indeed a single option : enable/disable the feeder.

Then the actual dropdown menu could be cleaned a bit since the default page-scan mode would be "manual feeding" and when it's usefull, one enables/disables the feeder somewhere in the GUI throught a checkbox or alike.

That's was my 2 cents
