Qt3 to Qt4 printer setup confusion

[impeteperry]

Thanks, actually I am able to print ok in Qt4, but what I wanted is to display a window similar to the one i get with

ret = myprinter.setup();

in Qt3.

what I wanted is to display a window similar to the one i get with ret = myprinter.setup(); in Qt3.

Then try QPageSetupDialog.

Thanks. I am new to this and am is the learning process and am totally confused.. I would appreciate it if, using the code snippit in my original post, you wold show the code to do what the

ret = myprinter.setup();

did in Qt3.

Thanks

I am new to this and am is the learning process and am totally confused.. I would appreciate it if, using the code snippit in my original post, you wold show the code to do what the did in Qt3.

It's something like:

#include <QPageSetupDialog>
...
QPrinter myprinter;
myprinter.setPageSize( QPrinter::Letter );
myprinter.setOrientation( QPrinter::Portrait );
myprinter.setColorMode( QPrinter::Color );
myprinter.setFullPage ( true );
 
QPageSetupDialog dialog( &myprinter, this );
if( dialog.exec() == QDialog::Accepted ) {
   ...
}

#include <QPageSetupDialog>
...
QPrinter myprinter;
myprinter.setPageSize( QPrinter::Letter );
myprinter.setOrientation( QPrinter::Portrait );
myprinter.setColorMode( QPrinter::Color );
myprinter.setFullPage ( true );

QPageSetupDialog dialog( &myprinter, this );
if( dialog.exec() == QDialog::Accepted ) {
   ...
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

Thanks a whole lot. You gave me the clue I was lookng for. I forgot the "#include"
What I had was

QPrintDialog dialog(&myprinter, this);
    if (dialog.exec() == QDialog::Accepted)

QPrintDialog dialog(&myprinter, this);
    if (dialog.exec() == QDialog::Accepted)

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

but not the #Include.
This gives me the "dialog" I was looing for.

Life is simple when you know what you are doing. Now I can go away happy.

Thanks again.
