Print problem

[Administrator]

When a cell contains multiple lines of text, the last line is not printed.

Since i couldnt attach the file.. I am giving the sample code here.

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Collections;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Data;

namespace WindowsApplication1

public Form1()
{
//

InitializeComponent();

//
// TODO: Add any constructor code after InitializeComponent call
//
gridControl1.RowCount = 2;
gridControl1.ColCount = 2;
}

When you run this sample code you will find a form with a gridcontrol containing two rows and two columns. Also the form will contain a printpreview button. When you click this you will notice that the last line in the second column of first row is not printed.

Adding this line at the top of your formload made the display and previewed grid appear the same.

this.gridControl1.BaseStylesMap["Standard"].StyleInfo.Font.Unit = GraphicsUnit.World;

if i am using the font name and size properties for the cell as follows.

gridControl1[1,2].Font.Facename="courier new";
gridControl1[1,2].Font.Size=10;

I use this in Form_load. Now when i use the following line
this.gridControl1.BaseStylesMap["Standard"].StyleInfo.Font.Unit = GraphicsUnit.World;

in form load the font size and face are not displayed in the grid and also in printpreview.
I want to preserve the font size and font face.

Thanks Clay

You should be able to see the font in PrintPreview and on the screen. The size may be scaled slightly differently.

The only other way I know to try to avoid this problem is to snap a bitmap of the grid and then print this bitmap. But this has problems because the scaling the bitmap will distort the grid.

Using WorldUnits and choosing appropriate fonts/sizes is the best solution we have found.

I have given the sample ..if i am Setting the font unit to Graphicsunit.world the font size and face set for the cells doesnt reflect in the grid. the sample code is as follows

using System;

}
