[flexcoders] PrintJob frustrations

2005-05-17 Thread Battershall, Jeff
I'm trying to print some charts along with a header.  In my app, the
header (a GridRow) is hidden until the print function is called, but for
some reason I CANNOT get the item to show in time to be sent to the
printer.

I tried setting up a separate function to show the header and then have
the actual print function fire when the show event of the GridRow is
fired.  STILL it does not work.

In general, I have to say that my experience with printing in Flex
leaves a great deal to be desired.  As reporting is a vital function in
enterprise contexts, I can only hope that the print implementation is
more refined in future releases.

Using setInterval/clearInterval seems to be a good workaround, unless
someone else has something better.
