Print Preview

[Colin Haig]

To All

I have the latest build of Fivewin but I cant seem to get the
updated Print Preview - I have copied prev32.dll into my application
directory (file dated 12.05.2005 ) - I also have a manifest file also
in that directory but it still is the old print preview.

Colin,

Please test samples\TestPrn2.prg and let us know how it looks. Thanks.

I tested that program and it is still the old
print preview.

Colin,

What do you mean as the "old" one ?

Could you please post a screenshot here ? Place it at www.imageshack.us and copy here the provided link. Thanks.

I have uploaded an image preview.jpg , I hope it worked okay,
the current print preview does not have xp themes or the new
rebar - which it states in the whatsnew.txt

Cheers

Check your app directory to see if you have a copy of Rpreview.prg there. (You might have made some special mods to Rpreview.) If so, it might be an old version that doesn't include the new code to handle XP buttons.

I did not have rpreview.prg in the directory but I copied it from
the fivewin classes directory - (prg dated '01.04.06') and compiled into my app - but still the same - I checked in the rpreview program and
tested - it appears that AppThemed returns false even though I have
a manifest file in the directory.

I use a .res file for my resources should I add the manifest details
in there - if so how.

You have to include xp manifest . Copy testprn2.rc to <yourprogramname>.rc and use the new prev32.dll .

Print Preview is much better looking now, is there a chance we can get an email feature with pdf saving from the preview ?

Has anyone succeeded in this from fwh preview direct (without easypreview.. or apdf printer etc ?
