Additional control of Preview Form

rbuser

Environment: Delphi 10 Seattle, RBE 17.01-b65

Just curious if there's any reasonably simple way of controlling
position of the preview form beyond setting its height and width. I'd
like to be able to position it at a particular location on the screen,
and have tried doing so in several different events, but evidently, RB
insists on opening the form window at screen center.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi Howard,

Use the Report.OnPreviewFormCreate event to change the TPosition and
location of the preview form using the Report.PreviewForm property.

For instance...

procedure TForm1.ppReport1PreviewFormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
ppReport1.PreviewForm.Position := poDesigned;
ppReport1.PreviewForm.Left := 0;

end;

Thanks, Nico,

That was a "DUH!" moment. I didn't even think of the Position property
for the preview form. Say what?

Cheers!
