Hi Ryno.
hoe gaat het met U? :-)
Hello.
I need a simple printing solution. I am putting together a School Yearbook in Rev in such a way that every card is also a printable page. It is a very small school, and very few of the parents have Macs, which is what I work on. So I need something chiefly for Windows, as I could make available separate CDs for Mac parents. A catch-all solution would be nice, though.
As one of the buttons, I have "Print". Then I would like to give in a drop-down menu the option of "Print this page" or "Print the Yearbook (80 pages)". (The pages are in landscape so I would have to include printRotated)
------- the following script does NOT work -------
on menuPick which
switch which
case "Print this page"
set the printRotated to true
print this card
break
case "Print the Yearbook (60 pages)"
print this stack
break
end switch
end menuPick
-------
I also tried a "answer" dialogue, but I could not find any documentation on how to handle three options; "Print this page" or "Print this stack" or "Cancel".
Does anyone have a a simple, or even a complicated, solution to my problem? It might even be nice to make available a kind or a standard script for less experienced scripters.
i think "printrotated" is not always supported...
Try this:
on menuPick which
switch which
case "Print this page"
answer "Please select landscape format in the print dialog..."
## optional
answer printer
## will display the printer dialog
if the result = "cancel" then exit menupick
## User clicked cancel in that dialog...
print this card
break
case "Print the Yearbook (60 pages)"
answer "Please select xxx (don't know the english word :-) format in the print dialog..."
## optional
answer printer
## will display the printer dialog
if the result = "cancel" then exit menupick
## User clicked cancel in that dialog...
print this stack
break
end switch
end menuPick
Hope that helps...
Ryno.
