Print grid from from own library

Hi there,

I am writing my own print library, but i have a little problem when printing a GridControl. I use the DrawGrid() method to draw the grid to my preview window. I can see the grid, but the visual style of the grid is the same as on screen. This is not what I want, I want the print style from the grid. So I discovered that there is a grid.printingmode property that can be turned on or off. When i'm turning it off, I see the grid (same as on the screen), but when I turn it on my grid is gone from the preview/print.

Is there a way to print the grid using the DrawGrid() method?

Thanks!

Tim.

Hi Tim,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion products.

Please refer this browser sample:
C:\Program Files\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\6.1.0.34\windows\Grid.Windows\Samples\Printing\PrintToFit

This sample shows you how to print a grid on a single page. It derives a GridPrintDocument class in order to handle the printing of the entire grid on a single page. It does this by drawing the full size grid to a large bitmap and then drawing this bitmap, scaled to fit the output page.

Kindly let us know if this helps.

Regards,
