You can use the PrintToDc method with the Printer.Hdc to print the chart without any dialogs or other controls.

Hi,

I have already asked this question to the CJ Support team.

If you need the Print Dialog the only current method is to display it in a hidden PrintPreview control then display the Print Dialog from there. It works as a workaround but I did suggest that a PrintChart method would be nice just as we have PrintReport & PrintReport2 for the ReportControl.

Why can't you use the CommonDialog print dialog and then print to the Printer.Hdc?

If I use:

ChCon.PrintToDC Printer.hDC, 400, 200, Printer.ScaleWidth - 400, Printer.ScaleHeight - 400

nothing happens.

Does it work if you do this:


Printer.Print ""
ChCon.PrintToDc Printer.Hdc, 200, 200, Printer.Width - 400, Printer.Height - 400
Printer.EndDoc

?
