Event Report.BeforePrint/Report.Afterprint

edited August 2015 in RAP
Hi!

I detected when I start a report in the preview the BeforePrint is
fired, then when I click on the Print-Button in the preview the
BeforePrint is not fired but the AfterPrint is fired.
Than when I click again the print-Button in the preview the BeforePrint
is NOT fired.
Thats bad, because I initialaze some things in the RAP-BeforePrint and
this should be done on EVERY print.

Is this by design or is there something wrong?
I am using RB Enterprise 16.01 Build 378 with Delphi 7

    Hi Gunter,

    I researched this and created a patch for RB 16.02. For the screen preview,
    the RAP AfterPrint usually fires when the preview form is closed or when
    leaving the Designer Preview page. However, there is also a requirement that
    for every BeforePrint the AfterPrint is called. With the patch, when
    printing from preview the RAP AfterPrint will fire, then the BeforePrint for
    the print to printer/file and then the AfterPrint when done printing to
    printer/file.
