This appears to be qt6 porting issue.

We need to evaluate whether this is a common issue for many options tools or just limited to preview.

Could you report it here, if you notice the option GUI changes got ignored by it's parent action?

Hi,
I set Current Drawing Preferrences to A4 landscape.
In print preview I get a scale of 1:8.65796 preset in the toolbar.

I set Current Drawing Preferrences to A4 portrait
In print preview I get a scale of 1:12.2448 preset in the toolbar.

Both previews fit the drawing to page.

I can enter a differen scale but
in neither case modified entry does change the drawing-scale to, say 1:5.  

zooming in / out changes the 1:5 to the preset values
and the print-preview tool bar icons get replicated to the right (a 'second' print-preview tool bar) for a brief moment.

The command line prints:
qt.core.qobject.connect: QObject::connect: No such signal QComboBox::currentIndexChanged(QString)
qt.core.qobject.connect: QObject::connect:  (sender name:   'cbScale')
qt.core.qobject.connect: QObject::connect:  (receiver name: 'Ui_PrintPreviewOptions')

Thank you for consideration
Hans-Peter
