VisualBrick

An object that contains information on how to print the editor.

Remarks

This method is automatically invoked by the printing mechanism when a container control (XtraGrid, XtraTreeList, etc.) that uses the current repository item is printed via the Printing System Library. Generally there is no need to call this method directly from your code.

You may need to override the GetBrick method if you create a custom editor and want it to be printed in a specific manner.
