no-modal preview
Posted: Thu Nov 09, 2017 10:26 AM

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..

Rick Lipkin

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

//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
