Graphics problems with Win98 and Win95

rbuser

In trying to work around some graphic size issues, we have placed 2
ppImage components on a report page, this works around the issues mentioned
in an earlier thread, however other issues have come up.
(see thread : Win98 won't print what W2K will print )
We have found problems with the print preview window within RB on Win95 and
Win98. When previewing the report, the screen graphic is unreadable. Upon
sending the report to the printer and switching to another page on the
report, the pages sent to the printer are then readable.

Is there some setting we are missing to allow complete report generation
before the report is previewed?


Now here's the kicker: This problem was unique to Win98 before we split
the page graphic into two smaller pieces. With the image split, Win 95 now
exhibits the same behavior.

Report.PassSetting = psTwopass causes the report engine to generate all of
the pages in the first pass. The second pass will happen as you preview the
pages on the screen.

Tried changing Report.PassSetting := psTwoPass
No change in image on the preview form.
Again, after printing, the preview image is as it should be!!!

Are you able to duplicate this problem?
Might there be a work-around we haven't found?


Thanks,
Matt
