\section{\class{wxPageSetupDialog}}\label{wxpagesetupdialog}

This class represents the page setup common dialog. In MSW, the page setup
dialog is standard from Windows 95 on, replacing the print setup dialog (which
is retained in Windows and wxWidgets for backward compatibility). On Windows 95
and NT 4.0 and above, the page setup dialog is native to the windowing system,
otherwise it is emulated.

The page setup dialog contains controls for paper size (A4, A5 etc.),
orientation (landscape or portrait), and controls for setting left, top, right
and bottom margin sizes in millimetres.

On Macintosh, the native page setup dialog is used, which lets you select paper
size and orientation but it does not let you change the page margins.

On other platforms, a generic dialog is used.

When the dialog has been closed, you need to query the
\helpref{wxPageSetupDialogData}{wxpagesetupdialogdata} object associated with
the dialog.

Note that the OK and Cancel buttons do not destroy the dialog; this must be done
by the application.

%\membersection{wxPageSetupDialog::IsOk}\label{wxpagesetupdialogisok}
%
%\constfunc{bool}{IsOk}{\void}
%
%Returns true if the print data associated with the dialog data is valid.
%This can return false on Windows if the current printer is not set, for example.
%On all other platforms, it returns true.

\membersection{wxPageSetupDialog::ShowModal}\label{wxpagesetupdialogshowmodal}

\func{int}{ShowModal}{\void}

Shows the dialog, returning wxID\_OK if the user pressed OK, and wxID\_CANCEL
otherwise.

\section{\class{wxPageSetupDialogData}}\label{wxpagesetupdialogdata}

This class holds a variety of information related to \helpref{wxPageSetupDialog}{wxpagesetupdialog}.

It contains a \helpref{wxPrintData}{wxprintdata} member which is used to hold basic printer configuration data (as opposed to the
user-interface configuration settings stored by wxPageSetupDialogData).
