I use this property quite a bit for user to report problems during the
developmental phase.  I have a button on the form they can then print the
screen, make notes and fax it to me for evaluation and correction.  I also
have the same issue with partial screen printing.  The problem is hardware
related and it does not behave the same way on every user's workstation.  I
suspect it is related to the screen resolution of the monitor.  It appears
to be more noticeable in workstations with screen resolutions higher than
1024x768 and those that have special wide screen drivers.  Unfortunately, I
have not had enough time to look into it in details.  For a quick screen
print to report problem the print screen image has been acceptable.

Please share anything you discover that will alleviate this problem.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Print Screen to a File

I was wanting to use a button on a form to print the current screen to a
file, however the best I can do is to achieve a partial print of the screen
to the default printer using the following:-

PROPERTY RBASE_FORM print PRINTER 

I thought that this had been discussed previously however I cannot find any
reference to it in my system. It would be appreciated if anyone could advise
what I need to do to achieve this, or where I should be looking for help on
this topic - preferably to allow one to print to a pdf and also how one
scales the screen to ensure the complete screen is printed.

Thank you.

Regards,
 
John Docherty
