no-modal preview

[AntoninoP]

Hello,
A customer asked the possibility to work on main window during the preview, then I changed the preview to not modal setting lPrvModal on device to false.
The no-modal preview has 2 problems:
1) it shows under the main window
2) If I move it the one page preview become thin:


can anybody help me?

You might try turning off the left side page preview thumbnails.. set this code at the top of your program and see if that helps..

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

//turn off report thumbnails
TPreview():lListViewHide := .T.

After some analysis we decide to not use no-modal preview...

Hello Antonino,

are you sure you use the same printer for preview in modal and no-modal mode.
This picture seems to me to be a preview of a receipt printer. Here you have a very large page height.

I never got preview working with receipt printer.
I always took the same way as you ( decide to not use preview).

Best regards,
Otto
