How access TppLabelTemplateWizardDialog.LabelDef property?

rbuser

After I show the Label Wizard in code and the user selects a label in
the Label Wizard I need to compute the number of labels per page.
However, I cannot find a way to get to the property since the
TppLabelTemplateWizardDialog is only referenced in a private member of
the Label Wizard.

Hi Bill,

I apologize, I did not realize the label dialog was private. Looking at the
code, it is apparent that the label wizard was not designed to be used this
way (executed in code). The only way I can see to access the label dialog
would be to create a custom label wizard, basically copying the current one
and changing it so you have access to the dialog, or simply the LabelDef
property of the dialog. Inside this custom label wizard, you could also
take one step further and create a method that calculates the number of
labels per page within. Once you create a new wizard, be sure to register
it in the initialization section using the ppRegisterWizard method, just as
in the current label wizard code.

If I had access to LabelDef I could calculate the number of labels per
page as:

FLabelsPerPage := ((PaperHeight - MarginTop - MarginBottom) div
(Height + RowSpacing)) * Columns;

Is there any way to get these values from the TppReport component? I
assume Height would be equal to the detail band height but I cannot
find properties for the other values in TppReport.
