PagingMode Property
Example 


Gets or sets a value that indicates how to do automatic paging when printing GcMultiRow.
Syntax
<SRDescriptionAttribute("Indicates how to do the automatic paging when printing GcMultiRow.")>
<DefaultValueAttribute()>
<RefreshPropertiesAttribute(RefreshProperties.Repaint)>
Public Property PagingMode As PagingMode
Dim instance As PrintSettings
Dim value As PagingMode
 
instance.PagingMode = value
 
value = instance.PagingMode
[SRDescription("Indicates how to do the automatic paging when printing GcMultiRow.")]
[DefaultValue()]
[RefreshProperties(RefreshProperties.Repaint)]
public PagingMode PagingMode {get; set;}

Property Value

One of the PagingMode values. The default is PagingMode.Flow.
Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
System.ComponentModel.InvalidEnumArgumentExceptionThe specified value is not one of the PagingMode values.
System.ArgumentExceptionWhen AutoFitWidth is true and the assigned value is PagingMode.MultiColumns.
Remarks

Use the PagingMode.Flow option to print each section from the page's top to the bottom one by one. Use the PagingMode.SingleRow option to print one section in only one page. Select the PagingMode.MultiColumns mode to print more sections in each page if the Template is so narrow that one page places several sections horizontally.

The Alignment, PrintHeader, and PrintFooter settings will have different behavior in different PagingModes.

Example
The following code example shows how to use the PrintStyle.Rich style and the PagingMode.Flow option to print the GcMultiRow control. This example is part of a larger example available for the GcMultiRow.PrintSettings class.
void setRichAndFlowButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Template template1 = CreateTemplate(3, 21);
            AddPrintInfoCellColumnFooterSection(template1, 21);
            this.gcMultiRow1.Template = template1;
            gcMultiRow1.RowCount = 50;

            //All UI elements are printed, like UpDown button.
            gcMultiRow1.PrintSettings.PrintStyle = PrintStyle.Rich;
            //All Rows are printed from first page to last page, one by one.
            gcMultiRow1.PrintSettings.PagingMode = PagingMode.Flow;
            //The GcMultiRow is aligned by MiddleLeft.
            gcMultiRow1.PrintSettings.Alignment = MultiRowContentAlignment.MiddleLeft;
            //Between every two Rows, there are 15 pixels.
            gcMultiRow1.PrintSettings.SectionMargin = 15;
