Plugin Preview Help!

rbuser

In a current MDI application we had a CustomPreview form that we are using
for our print previews.
To use some of the new features of RB 7 we took out the CustomerPeview and
added a PreviewPlugin.
I started by using your MyPreviewPlugIn.pas file to get me started.

I would like to changed some items and I need some help with it.

1. Change the PreviewPlugin to an MDI form.
2. Change to glyphs on the to match the ones I was using in our
CustomPreview form. (I have the glyph files) .

Thanks,
Paul Klomp

The plugin creates the controls on the form. The form is replacable. See the
RB Tutorials Complete directory in the installation for an example of
replacing the form itself. This doesn't use the TppPreviewPlugin
architecture. If you want to use the preview plugin architecture, then see
the MDI directory in the RBuilder\Demos\End User\MDI. Look in the mdiForm
unit in the TfrmMDIParent.spbPreviewClick method for an example of creating
a preview plugin in an MDI form.
