Parameters

Remarks

The PrintPreview method initiates a print preview. Invoking this method triggers the process of preparing a printed report based on the data in the grid and displaying the results in a print preview window. This process has several steps and involves interaction between print-preview-specific objects and events within the control.

When you invoke this method, you specify a Layout object that controls the formatting of how the grid data will look when printed, and also while being previewed. The Layout object gives you the opportunity to create a custom-formated report based on the data in teh grid, applying different attributes such as fonts, colors and arrangement of data specifically for the printed page.

When the print preview begins, the InitializePrintPreview event occurs. This event receives a PrintDocument object that contains information about the print job being previewed. You examine and change the properties of this object to provide feedback for the user and control the look of the printed output.

Example
Following code shows how to show the print preview of the grid and how to print the grid. It demonstrates the use of RowPropertyCategories enum.

Imports Infragistics.Shared
Imports Infragistics.Win
Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button1.Click
        ' Pass in All to specify that all settings get carried over from grid rows
        ' to the print/print-preview rows. This is used to facilitate WYSIWYG printing.
        Me.UltraGrid1.PrintPreview(RowPropertyCategories.All)

        ' Call print to actually print.
        Me.UltraGrid1.Print(RowPropertyCategories.All)
    End Sub
using Infragistics.Shared;
using Infragistics.Win;
using Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid;
using System.Diagnostics;

		private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
		{
			// Pass in All to specify that all settings get carried over from grid rows
			// to the print/print-preview rows. This is used to facilitate WYSIWYG printing.
			this.ultraGrid1.PrintPreview( RowPropertyCategories.All );
			
			// Call print to actually print.
			this.ultraGrid1.Print( RowPropertyCategories.All );
