To my knowledge, a PrintButton UI element that triggers the browsers print function has just been developed, but I have no idea in which SP it will be included (SP 12 maybe?).

Another idea: You could (generically) traverse a view and render a printable representation in any format you need. The (excellent) new book by Chris Whealy ("Inside Web Dynpro") describes how this could be implemented.

Hi,

Any news on the PrintButton UI?

Has it been discontinued? If not, which SP will it be included in?

Best regards,

Hello Armin Reichert,

In wich chapter do you see the way to traverse a view to have a printable version ?

Thanks a lot.

Hi Kavitha,

Create a context variable "vaPrintData" type "String". "vaPrintData" is for holding the data to be print.

Create one "TextView" object (txtViewPrintData) in your text view object's text value map the context variable "vaPrintData".

On click of the "PRINT" button, in action handler set the data to be displayed to the value attribute "vaPrintData".

Hope this helps you
