Printing the contents of a control

Question

I have an MFC app which is implemented as an SDI. The view class has a CListCtrl member which is shown within the client area. The rest of the view is updated using OnDraw(). Is there a way to include the contents of the list control when I print the view?

Thanks

You can include in your CView whatever you want. Any specific problem with that?

Solution 1

YES. You can implement printing yourself. It is like drawing on a DC named "Printer DC".

Here is a good sample how to do it: Printing with MFC Made Easy[^]

Solution 2

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I have a printer DC provided by the main view. The next problem is how to get another control (in this case a CListCtrl) to draw itself on the printer DC belonging to the main window. I am not sure if this is even possible.
