NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Win.Navigation, DevExpress.Win.Printing

Declaration

C#

public virtual void ShowPreview(
    UserLookAndFeel lookAndFeel
)

Public Overridable Sub ShowPreview(
    lookAndFeel As UserLookAndFeel
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
lookAndFeel	UserLookAndFeel	A UserLookAndFeel object which specifies the look and feel settings applied to the Print Preview form.

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.
