Printing problems

[Auvo]

Hi,

I have problems to use print-method in RadRichTextBox control. E.g when I dynamically load RadRichTextBox to the visual tree and then set the document. This throws an null exception when I call the Print-method.

RadRichTextBox textBox = new RadRichTextBox();
grid.Children.Add(textBox);
textBox.ApplyTemplate();
textBox.UpdateEditorLayout();
textBox.Document = this.CreateDocument();
textBox.Print("MyDoc", PrintMode.Native);  // It crash in here!

CreateDocument returns a valid document, I have tested it by loading it to radRichtextbox without printing.

Hopefully you can see directly what is wrong in my code... if you can provide sample project, that would also help.

 I'm using WPF version of Telerik controls (ver. 2011.2.712.40)

Regards,
Auvo

Hello Auvo,

Unfortunately there was a bug with native printing, which was introduced at a very late stage of development and passed in the final release build for the Q2 official release (2011.2.712). 
The good news is that we fixed it immediately in a subsequent internal build. If you upgrade to the Q2 SP1 (2011.2.920) or the recently released Q3 Beta (2011.3.1020), the issue will no longer be present.

All the best,

Great! I'll download the SP1 and try that

Thank's,

Hello,

I'm using the full Q3 release 2011.3.1220.1040, and am still getting the same exception when I call..

rtb.Print(PrintMode.Native);

How do I call the print method?

Hi Avrohom,

The bug reported in this forum has been fixed in the 2011 Q3 SP1 version you have quoted as the one you use.

There is a problem with the 2011 Q3 SP1 (2011.3.1220) only in Silverlight, when there are headers and footers in the document. Both issues are not present with the latest 2012 Q1.
