Auto close preview in RAP

Hi,

Is it possible in RAP after printing to an actual printer or file to automatically close the preview.

Thanks,

Ken

    Hi Ken,

    In my quick testing, it appears to be possible with a RAP passthru function from the AfterPrint event after checking for the proper device. Something like the following...

    TmyClosePreviewFunction = class (TraSystemFunction)
    public
    procedure ExecuteFunction(aParams: TraParamList); override;
    class function IsFunction: Boolean; override;
    class function GetSignature: string; override;
    end;

    ...

    procedure TmyClosePreviewFunction.ExecuteFunction(aParams: TraParamList);
    var
    lReport: TppReport;
    begin

    GetParamValue(0, lReport);

    if (lReport.PreviewForm <> nil) then
    lReport.PreviewForm.Close;

    end;

    class function TmyClosePreviewFunction.GetSignature: string;
    begin
    Result := 'procedure ClosePreviewForm(aReport: TppReport);';

    end;

    class function TmyClosePreviewFunction.IsFunction: Boolean;
    begin
    Result := False;

    end;

    initialization
    raRegisterFunction('ClosePreviewForm', TmyClosePreviewFunction);

    finalization
    raUnRegisterFunction('ClosePreviewForm');
    Best Regards,
