CompositeLink.ShowPreview() Method

Invokes the Print Preview form with the document created from this link.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPrintingLinks

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraPrinting.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Printing

#Declaration

public virtual void ShowPreview()

#Remarks

If the link’s document has not yet been created (the CompositeLink.CreateDocument method has not been called for it), then calling the ShowPreview method will create it first.

Consequently, if a document was created prior to calling the ShowPreview method, and nothing was changed that may force its re-creation, the ShowPreview method does not re-create it, so you need to manually call the CompositeLink.CreateDocument method to apply the document changes.

For more information, see Print Preview.
