Add Print functionality for Radwindow from code behind

[Sam]

Hi,

I am openning a radwindow on button click from code behind as below in silverlight 5 app:

 RadWindow newChldWindow = newRadWindow();
            newChldWindow.Closed += popUpCloseEvent;
            newChldWindow.Height = 650;
            newChldWindow.Width = 1000;
            newChldWindow.ResizeMode = ResizeMode.CanResize;
            newChldWindow.CanMove = true;

Would it be possible to add print functionality to this from code behind? 

PS. I can move this whole functionality to a control if necessary(which i tried and didn't succeed by using  this and this KB articles)


Thanks

Hi Sam,

You could easily print the content of RadWindow like this:

Let's, for example, the root Grid element in the RadWindow is defined like this:

<Grid x:Name="LayoutMain">
    ...
    <Button Content="Print" Click="Button_Click"  />
   ...
</Grid>

So in the Button_Click event handler add the following code snippet:

private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

{

    var doc = new PrintDocument();

 

    doc.PrintPage += new EventHandler<PrintPageEventArgs>(doc_PrintPage);

    doc.Print("Window Page");

}

 

private void doc_PrintPage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e)

{

    e.PageVisual = LayoutMain;   

    e.HasMorePages = false;

}

Hope this helps.

All the best,
