Re: Bug in printing with test case (was Re: [flexcoders] Flex print jobs)
Hi Wayne,
I want to reproduce the scenario that you are facing. Could you send me the code that you are using? You could zip the whole thing and send it to this address, I'll try and work out a solution for you.
Thanks,

Hi Sam,I tried a few events and complete was the only one that would work. Unfortunately, the data (path to the images) is being fed via an XML file which is constantly being updated, so there is no way for me to
embed the images. I'm trying to build a custom template batch printing solution in Flex. On one page, I need to be able to print the image, some text field metadata pertaining to the image, and a tree control that
shows some descriptive hierarchy (an assembly tree for you CAD guys out there) for the image. But I need this to happen for a potentially large number of objects stored in a ArrayCollection. I'm wondering if I could send the data to a canvas view and then add
that canvas to a viewstack, create a new view in the viewstack, and then repeat for all the data in my ArrayCollection. Once I have a viewstack with X views, send that viewstack to a print function to loop through the indexes and print. What would that do to
performance if I had a viewstack of 500-1000 views?Wayne--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com

Bug in printing with test case (was Re: [flexcoders] Flex print jobs)
Hi Sam,
I tried a few events and complete was the only one that would work.
Unfortunately, the data (path to the images) is being fed via an XML
file which is constantly being updated, so there is no way for me to
embed the images.
I'm trying to build a custom template batch printing solution in
Flex. On one page, I need to be able to print the image, some text
field metadata pertaining to the image, and a tree control that
shows some descriptive hierarchy (an assembly tree for you CAD guys
out there) for the image. But I need this to happen for a
potentially large number of objects stored in a ArrayCollection.
I'm wondering if I could send the data to a canvas view and then add
that canvas to a viewstack, create a new view in the viewstack, and
then repeat for all the data in my ArrayCollection. Once I have a
viewstack with X views, send that viewstack to a print function to
loop through the indexes and print. What would that do to
performance if I had a viewstack of 500-1000 views?

Bug in printing with test case (was Re: [flexcoders] Flex print jobs)
I was having the same problem until I added: pp.width=printjob.pageWidth; pp.height=printjob.pageHeight where pp is the object that I want printed. Not to hijack this thread, but is there a limitation in Flex that prevents the printing of jpegs that have been loaded dynamically onto a canvas? Like I said, adding those two lines allowed my object to start printing, but only the text is visible--no images.

Does the work around work :) ? I suppose a ValidateNow() could make a difference...

Bug in printing with test case (was Re: [flexcoders] Flex print jobs)
After going back and adding an event listener for the complete
action on the image I was able to get the image to print. Having to
use an event listener, however, causes a problem. I need to loop
through a potentially large data set, push data (including a path to
an image) to my print view and then send the print job. The user
should only be prompted with the windows print window one time.
I've tried instatiating a global FlexPrintJob variable, but that
seems to cause an empty print job. How might I achieve what I'm
looking to do?
Thanks!

Bug in printing with test case (was Re: [flexcoders] Flex print jobs)

Has anyone else had problems using the printJob classes ?
If I try and print a dynamicaly instantiated GUI component, the job silently
fails.
If I create the same component in line in the page, the job works well.
Please can someone confirm this and/or an Adobe person take a look ?
In the below example (of it not working) change
printJob.addObject(formPrintView, FlexPrintJobScaleType.MATCH_WIDTH);
to
printJob.addObject(thePrintView, FlexPrintJobScaleType.MATCH_WIDTH);
to get the working behaviour.
