Module Summary

Functions for wxPrintData class

Description

This class holds a variety of information related to printers and printer device contexts. This class is used to create a wxPrinterDC (not implemented in wx) and a wxPostScriptDC. It is also used as a data member of wxPrintDialogData and wxPageSetupDialogData, as part of the mechanism for transferring data between the print dialogs and the application.

wxWidgets docs: wxPrintData

new() -> wxPrintData()

Default constructor.

new(Data) -> wxPrintData()

Types

Copy constructor.

destroy(This :: wxPrintData()) -> ok

Destructor.

getCollate(This) -> boolean()

Types

Returns true if collation is on.

getBin(This) -> wx:wx_enum()

Types

Returns the current bin (papersource).

By default, the system is left to select the bin (wxPRINTBIN_DEFAULT is returned).

See setBin/2 for the full list of bin values.

getColour(This) -> boolean()

Types

Returns true if colour printing is on.

getDuplex(This) -> wx:wx_enum()

Types

Returns the duplex mode.

One of wxDUPLEX_SIMPLEX, wxDUPLEX_HORIZONTAL, wxDUPLEX_VERTICAL.

getNoCopies(This) -> integer()

Types

Returns the number of copies requested by the user.

getOrientation(This) -> wx:wx_enum()

Types

Gets the orientation.

This can be wxLANDSCAPE or wxPORTRAIT.

getPaperId(This) -> wx:wx_enum()

Types

Returns the paper size id.

See: setPaperId/2

getPrinterName(This) -> unicode:charlist()

Types

Returns the printer name.

If the printer name is the empty string, it indicates that the default printer should be used.

getQuality(This) -> integer()

Types

Returns the current print quality.

This can be a positive integer, denoting the number of dots per inch, or one of the following identifiers:

On input you should pass one of these identifiers, but on return you may get back a positive integer indicating the current resolution setting.

isOk(This) -> boolean()

Types

Returns true if the print data is valid for using in print dialogs.

This can return false on Windows if the current printer is not set, for example. On all other platforms, it returns true.

setBin(This, Flag) -> ok

Types

Sets the current bin.

setCollate(This, Flag) -> ok

Types

Flag = boolean()

Sets collation to on or off.

setColour(This, Flag) -> ok

Types

Flag = boolean()

Sets colour printing on or off.

setDuplex(This, Mode) -> ok

Types

Returns the duplex mode.

One of wxDUPLEX_SIMPLEX, wxDUPLEX_HORIZONTAL, wxDUPLEX_VERTICAL.

setNoCopies(This, N) -> ok

Types

N = integer()

Sets the default number of copies to be printed out.

setOrientation(This, Orientation) -> ok

Types

Orientation = wx:wx_enum()

Sets the orientation.

This can be wxLANDSCAPE or wxPORTRAIT.

setPaperId(This, PaperId) -> ok

Types

PaperId = wx:wx_enum()

Sets the paper id.

This indicates the type of paper to be used. For a mapping between paper id, paper size and string name, see wxPrintPaperDatabase in "paper.h" (not yet documented).

See: SetPaperSize() (not implemented in wx)

setPrinterName(This, PrinterName) -> ok

Types

PrinterName = unicode:chardata()

Sets the printer name.

This can be the empty string to indicate that the default printer should be used.

setQuality(This, Quality) -> ok

Types

Quality = integer()

Sets the desired print quality.

This can be a positive integer, denoting the number of dots per inch, or one of the following identifiers:

On input you should pass one of these identifiers, but on return you may get back a positive integer indicating the current resolution setting.
