Hi,

I am a newbie to Flash.  I have a Datagrid (fl.controls.datagrid) that is populated and is visible on the screen and this part is working fine.  I would like to add printing of the datagrid.  How would I go about doing this.  I have tried this based on the code found here (http://www.knowledgesutra.com/forums/topic/29459-print-flash-datagrids-without-resizing/).  It prints the first page correctly, but the second page has first page data though correct number of records are printed.  I am using AS3 with Flash 5.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Changed rowsPerPage.  Its value is calculated as 75 and printing only prints the first page.  My test grid contains 50 rows and 37 data rows fit in a single page.  Other than the rowsPerPage, I haven't changed any other code.  Do you want me to post my whole method here?


use:

function printPageF():void{

    if(pj.start()){

        for(var i:int=0;i<dataGrid.maxVerticalScrollPosition+rowsPerPage;i+=rowsPerPage){

        dataGrid.verticalScrollPosition = i;

        dataGrid.validateNow();

        pj.addPage(dataGrid);

        }

        pj.send();

    }

}

do you need to scroll your datagrid to display some of the data you want to print?

Yes because the Datagrid contains more than one page of records.  I have tried setting the verticalScrollPosition but it does not work.

copy and paste the code you used to add pages to your print job.
