I print a form, bodytext is a html area which I fill with a string I produce prior to printing.
All goes well if I make a choice to just print it directly. Outputting it to the printer (or osx preview/pdf) works perfectly.
Now I want to show a printpreview and that particular field remains empty. It doesn’t show anything. Strange since it does print…
No matter if this is os x or windows…
Is this reproduceble in a small solution?
Wow, got it… With the help of Servoy that is
The issue was caused by the fact that I fill up a global with a lot of html to be printed. I like to keep everything ‘clean’ so I emptied the global right after printing.
Printing caused the script to pause until printing was done.
A print preview (or show form) does not so the globals are emptied right away…
I now empty the globals upon record selection. Works like a charm!!!
