Preview Window size

PostPosted: Mon Oct 14, 2019 7:01 pm

By default, tPreview is opening to MAXIMIZED. One of my clients just got very upset because his new monitor ( 34" ) displays the preview on the entire screen, while the application itself is only taking about 1/3 of the screen.

Is there a system wide setting I can use to have tPreview initialized with the oWnd application screen size setting or do I have to modify tPreview from source ?

Thanks.

As of now, the only way is to modify rpreview.prg.

Now that you have raised the issue, we will provide a way to customize the size of the preview window in the next version.

Thank you. It does work with modifying rpreview.prg, but of course that would require the modification every time a new release was provided. Having it for the next version will be appreciated.

it is not necessarily correct you can use a function of yours instead of the activate method without changing the original class


Tim
you must call this at the init of your application
on Myactivatefunction you put your activate function

now I copied all activate method but U can modify the function Myactivatefunction with your configuration
so the original class remains intact and you can change the various methods you want

#include "FiveWin.ch"
#include "report.ch"

#xcommand OVERRIDE METHOD <!Message!> [IN] CLASS <!Class!> ;
WITH [METHOD] <!Method!> [SCOPE <Scope>] => ;
__clsModMsg( <Class>():classH, #<Message>, @<Method>() )

function myfunc_override()
OVERRIDE METHOD Activate() IN CLASS TPreview WITH Myactivatefunction
return nil


Function Myactivatefunction()
local Self := HB_QSelf()
local hWndMain

if ::oWnd == nil
return nil
endif

if ::bSetUp != nil
Eval( ::bSetUp, Self, ::oWnd )
endif

ACTIVATE WINDOW ::oWnd MAXIMIZED ;
ON RESIZE ( ::PaintMeta(), ::ResizeListView() ) ;
ON UP ::VScroll( GO_UP ) ;
ON DOWN ::VScroll( GO_DOWN ) ;
ON PAGEUP ::VScroll( GO_UP, GO_PAGE) ;
ON PAGEDOWN ::VScroll( GO_DOWN, GO_PAGE) ;
ON LEFT ::HScroll( GO_LEFT ) ;
ON RIGHT ::HScroll( GO_RIGHT ) ;
ON PAGELEFT ::HScroll( GO_LEFT, GO_PAGE ) ;
ON PAGERIGHT ::HScroll( GO_RIGHT, GO_PAGE ) ;
VALID ( ::oWnd:oIcon := nil ,;
::oFont:End() ,;
::oCursor:End() ,;
::oMeta1:End() ,;
::oMeta2:End() ,;
::oDevice:End() ,;
::oHand:End() ,;
If( Empty( ::oImageList ),, ( ::oImageList:End(), ::oImageList := nil ) ),;
If( ! Empty( ::oImageListPages ), ::oImageListPages:End(),),;
::oWnd := nil ,;
::oDevice:oPreview := nil ,;
::lExit := .T. )

if ::oDevice:lPrvModal
if ::oWndMain == nil
StopUntil( { || ::lExit } )
else
hWndMain := WndMain():hWnd
StopUntil( { || ::lExit .or. !IsWindow( hWndMain ) } )
endif
endif

return nil

let me see the comand you use to call rpreview or printer class

Silvio,

I just modified the rpreview.prg and linked it in.

In the Activate clause I simply changed Maximized to CENTERED

In the DEFINE WINDOW, I added. FROM 0,0 TO 900, 1150 PIXEL ;


It now works perfectly, and of course applies to all PREVIEW calls.

Like other options we can set with a single command line at the beginning of the program, I'm sure Nages will provide a very simple solution for us in the next release.

Thanks for the input. I will keep it in mind for other situations.

Tim

but now you've changed it and every time you have to change it.
If there will be updates in the Rpreview class you still need to change the class for your needs.

instead with my method it is easier and painless because even there will be updates using the override set your function
without changing the original class

you sad me you modify the rpreview.prg with
"DEFINE WINDOW, I added. FROM 0,0 TO 900, 1150 PIXEL" and change activate methods

it is easy...

I tried aand run ok here
I add also checkstyle function with no changes because it make erro ron nstyle = nil
on my applications I changed different method of RPreview or another classes
I change the buttonbar,listview,menu and other methods without change the original class
Remember to put the Ut_override() before at init on main of your application
