Existe alguma versão do flexreport para o FLEX 4, ou alguma que seja semelhante a essa, mas que rode no FLEX 4?

Is there some version of flexreport for the FLEX 4, or something that is similar to that, but that runs in Flex 4?

Hi,
I am using FlexReport for a simple header with logo, text field, advanceddatagrid (ADG) and footer. Basically, I have these components and when I press (print) button, FlexReport is supposed to be invoked, the dataprovider is filled with the groupColumns of the this ADG, its array collection and the other stuff. Inside the PrintAdvancedDataGrid I fill the cols and the dataProvider with the styles of every cell. I expect that the FlexReport shows these components as a report like your example.
Everything appears in the report well even Even the backgroundcolor of the cells, except the data inside the ADG rows. I have tried to change and/or add new Fonts other than Timeless. Debugging inside the PrintADG, I could see the data and it’s copied inside the dataProvider but nothing is shown!! When I build the cols and rows of the PrintADG manually inside e.g. init() function, and fill it with data objects, everything is shown correctly also with cell background colors and font style, weight, color and so on.
What I have done wrong? I have been working in this for long and with no success and I have no more time! Pleas e help me! and when you need the code please write me an email. Thanks in advanced!

oops…the MXML tags got eaten

3. In Preview.mxml change the width and height:

5. in DemoReport.mxml switch the height and width parameters:

height=”595″ width=”842″ xmlns:demo=”templates.demo.*”>

If you need to switch the layout to Landscape try the following (I used A4R):

1. In org.doc.PaperFormat.as switch the sizes in the A4R declaration:

public static const A4R : PaperFormat = new PaperFormat([842, 595],”A4.Rotated”,[11.9, 8.27],[297, 210]);

(not sure why A4R is the same as A4…)

2. add A4R to the paperFormats Array:

public static var paperFormats:Array = new Array(A3,A4,A4R, A5,LETTER,LEGAL,TABLOID);

3. In Preview.mxml change the width and height:

4. In FlexReportDemo.mxml change the Document() parameters:

doc = new Document(report, source, PaperFormat.A4R);

5. in DemoReport.mxml switch the height and width parameters:

That should get you landscape quickly to test preview (unless I missed something… ). The PDF print still needs work…

Hello Frederico,

when I redefine paddingLeft, paddingTop, paddingRight or paddingBottom from Report component to resize a print margin, the content of papper vanish. This problem occurs only the main page preview. In the thumbnail list are correct image render.
I’m using revision 64 in my project with Flex3.

Hi Frederico,

I’m concerned about the matter about FlexPrintJob will timeout after 15 seconds #1502, that’s because our user need to print out almost large amount pages in a printJob action, is this retricted by flash player, so what can we do to bypass it?

regards

I found something that could result problems. When I print from pop-up window (I put your component in pop-up window), black box was printed on paper above my report. I modified original code, and now everything works just perfect
Here is a part of changed code. This is doPrint() method in Document class:

instead of using
Application.application.addChild(template);

i used
var prnt:Box = Box(PopUpManager.createPopUp(Application.application as DisplayObject, Box)); prnt.addChild(template);

and instead
Application.application.removeChild(template);

i used
PopUpManager.removePopUp(prnt);

I think problem was that popup window was above print component and from some reason this result black box!

Awesome stuff… keep it rollin’!
Good luck!
