    Posted: 27 November 2007 at 9:47am

Hi Folks,

we're using Combit List & Label Ver. 12 as Report Generator. There is quite a strange behaviour when printing a report: The "Printer Dialog" Window is shown with a standard Windows XP Border for about 3 seconds, then it disappears. After starting the printout the progress window is shown with a default XP Border wich also disappears after a few seconds. The "Preview Window" is ok, but the "Designer Window" is an awfull mess of showing/not showing/disappearing and thus flickering Window Borders.
 
Anybody working with List&Label and SkinFramework?
 
How can I prevent List&Label from being "frameworked"?
 
Ah, yes, forgot to mention: We are not using the List&Label OXC but calling the DLLs directly.
 
Any answers are mostly appreciated!
 
Thanks in advance

Hi Oleg,
 
that's great!
 
 
Thats the way we use it:
 


  hJob = LlJobOpen(CMBTLANG_GERMAN)


  LlSetDlgboxMode LL_DLGBOXMODE_NOBITMAPS
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_NEWEXPRESSIONS, 1)
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_MULTIPLETABLELINES, 1)
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_SUPPORTPAGEBREAK, 0)
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_SORTVARIABLES, 1)
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_DRAWFOOTERLINEONPRINT, 1)
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_COMPRESSSTORAGE, 0)
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_NOPARAMETERCHECK, 1) 
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_XLATVARNAMES, 0) 
  ret = LlSetOption(hJob, LL_OPTION_CONVERTCRLF, 1)
  ret = LlPreviewSetTempPath(hJob, AppPath)


  Call LlDefineFieldStart(hJob)
  Call LlDefineVariableStart(hJob)


  'define some Fields and some Variables


  'Fields are used in Tables


  'Variables ase used in Textboxes etc.


 


  LlDefineFieldExt(hJob, "aNumericValue", 200, LL_NUMERIC, "")




  LlDefineField(hJob, "aTextValue", " ")


 


  LlDefineVariableExt hJob, "TextVariable", "", LL_TEXT, ""


  'Start printing 


  ret = LlPrintWithBoxStart(hJob, LL_PROJECT_LIST, "ObjName", LL_PRINT_USERSELECT Or LL_PRINT_MULTIPLE_JOBS, LL_BOXTYPE_NORMALMETER, me.hwnd, "Title")


 


  LlPrint hJob


 


  'Start printing...


  LlDefineFieldExt(hJob, "aNumericValue", 1.56, LL_NUMERIC, "")




  LlDefineField(hJob, "aTextValue", "This is the printed Text...")


 


  LlDefineVariableExt hJob, "TextVariable", "This is the Value", LL_TEXT, ""


  While LlPrintFieldsEnd(hJob) = LL_WRN_REPEAT_DATA
  Wend


  ret = LlPrintEnd(hJob, 0)
 
Just to show you how List&Label is used by us. There are some Examples in the Evaluation Version, but most of them use the ocx...
 
Thanks

Hi Oleg,
 
just downloaded the current evaluation version of SkinFramework, inserted it into an LL12 Example - still: the Designer is not working 100% (the menu line is hidden and only navigable by keystoke Alt+letter)...
 
thanks

OK, so I found a solution:
 
in the initialisation of my printing class I set
 
fMainForm.SkinFramework.AutoApplyNewWindows = false
 
and when terminating the class
 
fMainForm.SkinFramework.AutoApplyNewWindows = true
 
That works for me - one little glitch stays: the new windows inherits some Colors from the Framework... but that doesn't matter...
 
thanks
 
Herbert
