10 @class wxPreviewControlBar
13 This is the default implementation of the preview control bar, a panel
14 with buttons and a zoom control.
16 You can derive a new class from this and override some or all member functions
17 to change the behaviour and appearance; or you can leave it as it is.
22 @see wxPreviewFrame, wxPreviewCanvas, wxPrintPreview
24 class wxPreviewControlBar
: public wxPanel
31 The @a buttons parameter may be a combination of the following, using the bitwise
35 @flag{wxPREVIEW_PRINT}
36 Create a print button.
38 Create a next page button.
39 @flag{wxPREVIEW_PREVIOUS}
40 Create a previous page button.
42 Create a zoom control.
43 @flag{wxPREVIEW_DEFAULT}
44 Equivalent to a combination of @c wxPREVIEW_PREVIOUS, @c wxPREVIEW_NEXT
45 and @c wxPREVIEW_ZOOM.

);
88 @class wxPreviewCanvas
91 A preview canvas is the default canvas used by the print preview
92 system to display the preview.

117 Calls wxPrintPreview::PaintPage() to refresh the canvas.
119 void OnPaint(wxPaintEvent

);
125 @class wxPreviewFrame
128 This class provides the default method of managing the print preview interface.
129 Member functions may be overridden to replace functionality, or the
130 class may be used without derivation.
135 @see wxPreviewCanvas, wxPreviewControlBar, wxPrintPreview
137 class wxPreviewFrame
: public wxFrame
143 Pass a print preview object plus other normal frame arguments.
144 The print preview object will be destroyed by the frame when it closes.

159 Creates a wxPreviewCanvas.
161 Override this function to allow a user-defined preview canvas object
167 Creates a wxPreviewControlBar.
169 Override this function to allow a user-defined preview control bar object
172 void CreateControlBar();
175 Creates the preview canvas and control bar, and calls wxWindow::MakeModal(@true)
176 to disable other top-level windows in the application.
178 This function should be called by the application prior to showing the frame.
183 Enables the other frames in the application, and deletes the print preview
184 object, implicitly deleting any printout objects associated with the print
187 void OnCloseWindow(wxCloseEvent
& event
);
193 @class wxPrintPreview
196 Objects of this class manage the print preview process. The object is passed
197 a wxPrintout object, and the wxPrintPreview object itself is passed to
198 a wxPreviewFrame object. Previewing is started by initializing and showing
199 the preview frame. Unlike wxPrinter::Print(), flow of control returns to the
200 application immediately after the frame is shown.
203 The preview shown is only exact on Windows. On other platforms, the wxDC
204 used for preview is different from what is used for printing and the
205 results may be significantly different, depending on how is the output
206 created. In particular, printing code relying on wxDC::GetTextExtent()
207 heavily (for example, wxHtmlEasyPrinting and other wxHTML classes do) is
208 affected. It is recommended to use native preview functionality on
209 platforms that offer it (OS X, GTK+).
214 @see @ref overview_printing, wxPrinterDC, wxPrintDialog, wxPrintout, wxPrinter,
215 wxPreviewCanvas, wxPreviewControlBar, wxPreviewFrame
217 class wxPrintPreview
: public wxObject
223 Pass a printout object, an optional printout object to be used for actual
224 printing, and the address of an optional block of printer data, which will
225 be copied to the print preview object's print data.
227 If @a printoutForPrinting is non-@NULL, a @b "Print..." button will be placed on
228 the preview frame so that the user can print directly from the preview interface.
231 Do not explicitly delete the printout objects once this destructor has been
232 called, since they will be deleted in the wxPrintPreview constructor.
233 The same does not apply to the @a data argument.
235 Use IsOk() to check whether the wxPrintPreview object was created correctly.
237 wxPrintPreview(wxPrintout
* printout
,
238 wxPrintout
* printoutForPrinting
,
239 wxPrintData
* data
= NULL
);
244 Deletes both print preview objects, so do not destroy these objects
250 Gets the preview window used for displaying the print preview image.
252 wxPreviewCanvas
* GetCanvas();
255 Gets the page currently being previewed.
257 int GetCurrentPage();
260 Gets the frame used for displaying the print preview canvas
266 Returns the maximum page number.
271 Returns the minimum page number.
276 Gets the preview printout object associated with the wxPrintPreview object.
278 wxPrintout
* GetPrintout();
281 Gets the printout object to be used for printing from within the preview
283 or @NULL if none exists.
285 wxPrintout
* GetPrintoutForPrinting();
288 Returns @true if the wxPrintPreview is valid, @false otherwise.
290 It could return @false if there was a problem initializing the printer
291 device context (current printer not set, for example).
296 This refreshes the preview window with the preview image.
297 It must be called from the preview window's OnPaint member.
299 The implementation simply blits the preview bitmap onto
300 the canvas, creating a new preview bitmap if none exists.
302 bool PaintPage(wxPreviewCanvas
* canvas
, wxDC dc
);
305 Invokes the print process using the second wxPrintout object
306 supplied in the wxPrintPreview constructor.
307 Will normally be called by the @b Print... panel item on the
308 preview frame's control bar.
310 Returns @false in case of error -- call wxPrinter::GetLastError()
311 to get detailed information about the kind of the error.
313 bool Print(bool prompt
);
316 Renders a page into a wxMemoryDC. Used internally by wxPrintPreview.
318 bool RenderPage(int pageNum
);
321 Sets the window to be used for displaying the print preview image.
323 void SetCanvas(wxPreviewCanvas
* window
);
326 Sets the current page to be previewed.
328 void SetCurrentPage(int pageNum
);
331 Sets the frame to be used for displaying the print preview canvas
334 void SetFrame(wxFrame
* frame
);
337 Associates a printout object with the wxPrintPreview object.
339 void SetPrintout(wxPrintout
* printout
);
342 Sets the percentage preview zoom, and refreshes the preview canvas accordingly.
344 void SetZoom(int percent
);
353 This class represents the Windows or PostScript printer, and is the vehicle
354 through which printing may be launched by an application.
356 Printing can also be achieved through using of lower functions and classes,
357 but this and associated classes provide a more convenient and general method
363 @see @ref overview_printing, wxPrinterDC, wxPrintDialog, wxPrintout, wxPrintPreview
365 class wxPrinter
: public wxObject
371 Pass an optional pointer to a block of print dialog data, which will be
372 copied to the printer object's local data.
374 @see wxPrintDialogData, wxPrintData
376 wxPrinter(wxPrintDialogData
* data
= NULL
);
379 Creates the default printing abort window, with a cancel button.
381 void CreateAbortWindow(wxWindow
* parent
, wxPrintout
* printout
);
384 Returns @true if the user has aborted the print job.
389 Return last error. Valid after calling Print(), PrintDialog() or
390 wxPrintPreview::Print().
392 These functions set last error to @c wxPRINTER_NO_ERROR if no error happened.
394 Returned value is one of the following:
397 @row2col{wxPRINTER_NO_ERROR, No error happened.}
398 @row2col{wxPRINTER_CANCELLED, The user cancelled printing.}
399 @row2col{wxPRINTER_ERROR, There was an error during printing.}
402 static wxPrinterError
GetLastError();
405 Returns the @ref overview_printing_printdata "print data" associated with
408 wxPrintDialogData
& GetPrintDialogData();
411 Starts the printing process. Provide a parent window, a user-defined wxPrintout
412 object which controls the printing of a document, and whether the print dialog
413 should be invoked first.
415 Print() could return @false if there was a problem initializing the printer device
416 context (current printer not set, for example) or the user cancelled printing.
417 Call GetLastError() to get detailed information about the kind of the error.
419 bool Print(wxWindow
* parent
, wxPrintout
* printout
,
423 Invokes the print dialog.
425 If successful (the user did not press Cancel and no error occurred),
426 a suitable device context will be returned; otherwise @NULL is returned;
427 call GetLastError() to get detailed information about the kind of the error.
430 The application must delete this device context to avoid a memory leak.
432 wxDC
* PrintDialog(wxWindow
* parent
);
435 Default error-reporting function.
437 void ReportError(wxWindow
* parent
, wxPrintout
* printout
,
438 const wxString
& message
);
441 Invokes the print setup dialog.
444 The setup dialog is obsolete from Windows 95, though retained
445 for backward compatibility.
447 bool Setup(wxWindow
* parent
);
456 This class encapsulates the functionality of printing out an application document.
458 A new class must be derived and members overridden to respond to calls such as
459 OnPrintPage() and HasPage() and to render the print image onto an associated wxDC.
460 Instances of this class are passed to wxPrinter::Print() or
461 to a wxPrintPreview object to initiate printing or previewing.
463 Your derived wxPrintout is responsible for drawing both the preview image and
464 the printed page. If your windows' drawing routines accept an arbitrary DC as an
465 argument, you can re-use those routines within your wxPrintout subclass to draw
466 the printout image. You may also add additional drawing elements within your
467 wxPrintout subclass, like headers, footers, and/or page numbers. However, the
468 image on the printed page will often differ from the image drawn on the screen,
469 as will the print preview image -- not just in the presence of headers and
470 footers, but typically in scale. A high-resolution printer presents a much
471 larger drawing surface (i.e., a higher-resolution DC); a zoomed-out preview
472 image presents a much smaller drawing surface (lower-resolution DC). By using
473 the routines FitThisSizeToXXX() and/or MapScreenSizeToXXX() within your
474 wxPrintout subclass to set the user scale and origin of the associated DC, you
475 can easily use a single drawing routine to draw on your application's windows,
476 to create the print preview image, and to create the printed paper image, and
477 achieve a common appearance to the preview image and the printed page.
482 @see @ref overview_printing, wxPrinterDC, wxPrintDialog, wxPageSetupDialog,
483 wxPrinter, wxPrintPreview
485 class wxPrintout
: public wxObject
491 Pass an optional title argument - the current filename would be a
492 good idea. This will appear in the printing list (at least in MSW)
494 wxPrintout(const wxString
& title
= "Printout");
502 Set the user scale and device origin of the wxDC associated with this wxPrintout
503 so that the given image size fits entirely within the page rectangle and the
504 origin is at the top left corner of the page rectangle.
506 On MSW and Mac, the page rectangle is the printable area of the page.
507 On other platforms and PostScript printing, the page rectangle is the entire paper.
509 Use this if you want your printed image as large as possible, but with the caveat
510 that on some platforms, portions of the image might be cut off at the edges.
512 void FitThisSizeToPage(const wxSize
& imageSize
);
515 Set the user scale and device origin of the wxDC associated with this wxPrintout
516 so that the given image size fits entirely within the page margins set in the
517 given wxPageSetupDialogData object.
519 This function provides the greatest consistency across all platforms because it
520 does not depend on having access to the printable area of the paper.
523 On Mac, the native wxPageSetupDialog does not let you set the page margins;
524 you'll have to provide your own mechanism, or you can use the Mac-only class
525 wxMacPageMarginsDialog.
527 void FitThisSizeToPageMargins(const wxSize
& imageSize
,
528 const wxPageSetupDialogData
& pageSetupData
);
531 Set the user scale and device origin of the wxDC associated with this wxPrintout
532 so that the given image size fits entirely within the paper and the origin is at
533 the top left corner of the paper.
535 Use this if you're managing your own page margins.
538 With most printers, the region around the edges of the paper are not
539 printable so that the edges of the image could be cut off.
542 void FitThisSizeToPaper(const wxSize
& imageSize
);
545 Returns the device context associated with the printout (given to the printout
546 at start of printing or previewing).
548 The application can use GetDC() to obtain a device context to draw on.
550 This will be a wxPrinterDC if printing under Windows or Mac, a wxPostScriptDC
551 if printing on other platforms, and a wxMemoryDC if previewing.
556 Return the rectangle corresponding to the page margins specified by the given
557 wxPageSetupDialogData object in the associated wxDC's logical coordinates for
558 the current user scale and device origin.
560 The page margins are specified with respect to the edges of the paper on all
563 wxRect
GetLogicalPageMarginsRect(const wxPageSetupDialogData
& pageSetupData
);
566 Return the rectangle corresponding to the page in the associated wxDC 's
567 logical coordinates for the current user scale and device origin.
569 On MSW and Mac, this will be the printable area of the paper.
570 On other platforms and PostScript printing, this will be the full paper
573 wxRect
GetLogicalPageRect();
576 Return the rectangle corresponding to the paper in the associated wxDC 's
577 logical coordinates for the current user scale and device origin.
579 wxRect
GetLogicalPaperRect();
582 Returns the number of pixels per logical inch of the printer device context.
584 Dividing the printer PPI by the screen PPI can give a suitable scaling factor
585 for drawing text onto the printer.
587 Remember to multiply this by a scaling factor to take the preview DC size into
589 Or you can just use the FitThisSizeToXXX() and MapScreenSizeToXXX routines below,
590 which do most of the scaling calculations for you.
593 This method returns the output-only parameters as a tuple.
596 void GetPPIPrinter(int* w
, int* h
);
599 Returns the number of pixels per logical inch of the screen device context.
601 Dividing the printer PPI by the screen PPI can give a suitable scaling factor
602 for drawing text onto the printer.
604 If you are doing your own scaling, remember to multiply this by a scaling
605 factor to take the preview DC size into account.
608 This method returns the output-only parameters as a tuple.
611 void GetPPIScreen(int* w
, int* h
);
614 Called by the framework to obtain information from the application about minimum
615 and maximum page values that the user can select, and the required page range to
618 By default this returns (1, 32000) for the page minimum and maximum values, and
619 (1, 1) for the required page range.
621 @a minPage must be greater than zero and @a maxPage must be greater
625 When this method is implemented in a derived Python class, it should be designed
626 to take no parameters (other than the self reference) and to return a tuple of
630 void GetPageInfo(int* minPage
, int* maxPage
, int* pageFrom
,
634 Returns the size of the printer page in millimetres.
637 This method returns the output-only parameters as a tuple.
640 void GetPageSizeMM(int* w
, int* h
);
643 Returns the size of the printer page in pixels, called the page rectangle.
645 The page rectangle has a top left corner at (0,0) and a bottom right corner at
646 (w,h). These values may not be the same as the values returned from
647 wxDC::GetSize(); if the printout is being used for
648 previewing, a memory device context is used, which uses a bitmap size reflecting
649 the current preview zoom. The application must take this discrepancy into
650 account if previewing is to be supported.
653 This method returns the output-only parameters as a tuple.
656 void GetPageSizePixels(int* w
, int* h
);
659 Returns the rectangle that corresponds to the entire paper in pixels, called the
662 This distinction between paper rectangle and page rectangle reflects the fact that
663 most printers cannot print all the way to the edge of the paper.
664 The page rectangle is a rectangle whose top left corner is at (0,0) and whose width
665 and height are given by wxDC::GetPageSizePixels().
667 On MSW and Mac, the page rectangle gives the printable area of the paper, while the
668 paper rectangle represents the entire paper, including non-printable borders.
669 Thus, the rectangle returned by wxDC::GetPaperRectPixels() will have a top left corner
670 whose coordinates are small negative numbers and the bottom right corner will have
671 values somewhat larger than the width and height given by wxDC::GetPageSizePixels().
673 On other platforms and for PostScript printing, the paper is treated as if its entire
674 area were printable, so this function will return the same rectangle as the page
677 wxRect
GetPaperRectPixels();
680 Returns the title of the printout.
682 @todo the python note here was wrong
687 Should be overridden to return @true if the document has this page, or @false
690 Returning @false signifies the end of the document. By default,
691 HasPage behaves as if the document has only one page.
693 bool HasPage(int pageNum
);
696 Returns @true if the printout is currently being used for previewing.
701 Set the user scale and device origin of the wxDC associated with this wxPrintout
702 so that one screen pixel maps to one device pixel on the DC.
703 That is, the user scale is set to (1,1) and the device origin is set to (0,0).
705 Use this if you want to do your own scaling prior to calling wxDC drawing calls,
706 for example, if your underlying model is floating-point and you want to achieve
707 maximum drawing precision on high-resolution printers.
709 You can use the GetLogicalXXXRect() routines below to obtain the paper rectangle,
710 page rectangle, or page margins rectangle to perform your own scaling.
713 While the underlying drawing model of Mac OS X is floating-point,
714 wxWidgets's drawing model scales from integer coordinates.
716 void MapScreenSizeToDevice();
719 This sets the user scale of the wxDC assocated with this wxPrintout to the same
720 scale as MapScreenSizeToPaper() but sets the logical origin to the top left corner
721 of the page rectangle.
723 void MapScreenSizeToPage();
726 This sets the user scale of the wxDC assocated with this wxPrintout to the same
727 scale as MapScreenSizeToPageMargins() but sets the logical origin to the top left
728 corner of the page margins specified by the given wxPageSetupDialogData object.
730 void MapScreenSizeToPageMargins(const wxPageSetupDialogData
& pageSetupData
);
733 Set the user scale and device origin of the wxDC associated with this wxPrintout
734 so that the printed page matches the screen size as closely as possible
735 and the logical origin is in the top left corner of the paper rectangle.
737 That is, a 100-pixel object on screen should appear at the same size on the
739 (It will, of course, be larger or smaller in the preview image, depending on the
742 Use this if you want WYSIWYG behavior, e.g., in a text editor.
744 void MapScreenSizeToPaper();
747 Shift the device origin by an amount specified in logical coordinates.
749 void OffsetLogicalOrigin(wxCoord xoff
, wxCoord yoff
);
752 Called by the framework at the start of document printing. Return @false from
753 this function cancels the print job.
755 OnBeginDocument() is called once for every copy printed.
758 The base OnBeginDocument() must be called (and the return value
759 checked) from within the overridden function, since it calls wxDC::StartDoc().
762 If this method is overridden in a Python class then the base class version can
763 be called by using the method <tt>base_OnBeginDocument(startPage, endPage)</tt>.
766 bool OnBeginDocument(int startPage
, int endPage
);
769 Called by the framework at the start of printing.
771 OnBeginPrinting() is called once for every print job
772 (regardless of how many copies are being printed).
774 void OnBeginPrinting();
777 Called by the framework at the end of document printing.
779 OnEndDocument() is called once for every copy printed.
782 The base OnEndDocument() must be called from within the overridden function,
783 since it calls wxDC::EndDoc().
785 void OnEndDocument();
788 Called by the framework at the end of printing.
790 OnEndPrinting is called once for every print job
791 (regardless of how many copies are being printed).
793 void OnEndPrinting();
796 Called once by the framework before any other demands are made of the
799 This gives the object an opportunity to calculate the number of pages
800 in the document, for example.
802 void OnPreparePrinting();
805 Called by the framework when a page should be printed. Returning @false cancels
808 bool OnPrintPage(int pageNum
);
811 Set the device origin of the associated wxDC so that the current logical point
812 becomes the new logical origin.
814 void SetLogicalOrigin(wxCoord x
, wxCoord y
);
