Is there a way to print the selected text using the SyntaxEditor.Print instead of the entire document text?
Thanks

There isn't a way right now however I'll add it to the TODO list.

Any word on when this will be included? Thanks.

Hi Marianne,
I've looked at it and the way we have things set up, this isn't a straightforward thing to implement. But I will try and bump it up on the priority list to see if we can get it in soon.

As a workaround, would it be possible to load the selected text into a new instance of SyntaxEditor and initiate the print from there? You could even adjust the starting line number used by that instance of Syntax Editor to make sure they line up with the original.
Just a thought...

What about this... can you set up the print output so that it captures the display from the editor and not the complete script. In other words, if I have collapsed regions, I want them to stay collapsed in the print output. Right now, it automatically prints the fully expanded version of the script.
Boyd, the workaround is definitely worth looking into. Thanks.

I'll add this to the TODO list. It should be easy to add a property to control whether all collapsed nodes are auto-expanded or not in printing.

The printing selection option has been added for the next maintenance release.

Can you post a starting point for print selection?

Hi Mark,
If the editor.PrintSettings.PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.PrintRange == PrintRange.Selection then it will print selection.

I'm using the ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.Wpf.dll assembly, and the PrintDocument and PrintRange don't resolve. I can't find either keyword in the help or sample application solutoin. What am I missing?
Thanks.

Hi Mark,
This forum thread is for the WinForms SyntaxEditor, so that reply was related to that version.
The WPF version doesn't currently support printing only a selection, mainly because there is no option for us to interact with in .NET 4.0. I believe Microsoft added an option in .NET 4.5 that allowed the print selection option, but our code still targets .NET 4.0 so we can't work with that yet. You'd probably have to follow Boyd's suggestion above for now on that platform.

Ok, that's for this, sorry about posting in the wrong forum. Our code already did the workaround but I noticed that the fonts/colors don't come through. So more work around work todo.
Thanks.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.1) was released 1 month ago,
which was after the last post in this thread.
