PrintPreviewDialog - how to set the zoom

[hlng]

I have the below code under 1 class file

 

public class PrintChecklist : PrintDocument

{

// show the print preview screen

public void ShowPreview()

{

// now, show the print dialog...

PrintPreviewDialog dialog = new PrintPreviewDialog();

dialog.Document = this;

dialog.Width = 700;

dialog.Height = 600;

 

// show the dialog...

dialog.ShowDialog();

} // ShowPreview()

 

 

on my form, I have call the form out

 

PrintChecklist printchecklist = new PrintChecklist();

printchecklist.ShowPreview();

 

 

By the default, the print preview dialog that come out will show automatic zoom, which is very small.

I want the print preview dialog to zoom at 75%, any way to do it ?

ZOOM property

 

Try messing with this property:

Dialog.PrintPreviewControl.Zoom = 2

Hi,

I could not find a dialog.PrintPreviewControl.Zoom property in my program.

Derek, since you decalred dialog as PrintPreviewControl then ...

 

dialog.Zoom = 75
