Spread Windows Forms 8.0 Product Documentation
ShowColor Property
Example 


Gets or sets whether to print the colors as they appear on the screen.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property ShowColor As Boolean
'Usage
 
Dim instance As PrintInfo
Dim value As Boolean
 
instance.ShowColor = value
 
value = instance.ShowColor
public bool ShowColor {get; set;}

Property Value

Boolean: true to print the colors; false otherwise
Remarks

When this property is set to false, the colors specified within the Spread component are ignored, the sheet prints using black and white, and the headers print in shades of gray. When this property is set to true and the sheet is not printed on a color printer, the colors print as dithered patterns. The ShowColor property works when exporting to PDF or an Excel-formatted file with virtual printers.

Example
This example shows how to define the settings for customizing the printed page layout.
// Define the printer settings
FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintInfo printset = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintInfo();
FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintMargin printmar = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintMargin();

printmar.Left = 10;
printmar.Right = 10;
printmar.Top = 20;
printmar.Bottom = 40;

printset.Centering = FarPoint.Win.Spread.Centering.Both;
printset.FirstPageNumber = 1;
printset.Margin = printmar;
printset.Opacity = 60;
printset.Orientation = FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintOrientation.Portrait;
printset.ShowBorder = false;
printset.ShowColor = false;
printset.ShowColumnHeader = FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintHeader.Hide;
printset.ShowRowHeader = FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintHeader.Hide;
printset.ShowGrid = true;
printset.ShowShadows = false;
printset.ZoomFactor = 2;

// Assign the printer settings to the sheet and print it
printset.PrintToPdf = true;
printset.PdfFileName = "C:\\results.pdf";
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].PrintInfo = printset;
fpSpread1.PrintSheet(0);
' Define the printer settings
Dim printset As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintInfo()
Dim printmar As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintMargin

printmar.Left = 10
printmar.Right = 10
printmar.Top = 20
printmar.Bottom = 40

printset.Centering = FarPoint.Win.Spread.Centering.Both
printset.FirstPageNumber = 1
printset.Margin = printmar
printset.Opacity = 60
printset.Orientation = FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintOrientation.Portrait
printset.ShowBorder = False
printset.ShowColor = False
printset.ShowColumnHeader = FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintHeader.Hide
printset.ShowRowHeader = FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintHeader.Hide
printset.ShowGrid = True
printset.ShowShadows = False
printset.ZoomFactor = 2

' Assign the printer settings to the sheet and print it
