"Print" option The "Print" option is used to print the content of the Organizer control. A specific window is displayed, allowing you to configure the print. This window allows you to configure: - the report orientation.
- duration taken into account: day, week, month, etc.
- the period to print (set of dates).
Note: Depending on the options specified for page length and period, the diary printout may be more or less legible and take up several pages.. For example, an organizer printing the daily schedule over a week will print 1 page per day. The "Print" button is used to start the print. The content of the Organizer control is viewed in the report viewer. Regardless of the selected orientation, the content of the Organizer control is entirely printed between the specified bounds. The print characteristics are as follows: - The title of the print corresponds to the caption of the Organizer control. If no caption was specified for the Organizer control, the report displays no title.
- The print respects the color used in the Organizer control.
- Today's date is printed at the bottom left.
- The number of the current page and the total number of pages are printed in the lower-right corner.

Customizing the setting window for printing the scheduler WINDEV allows you to include the setting window for printing the organizer used by the AAF in your application. You will have the ability to customize: - the appearance of this window (modification of skin template for example),
- the languages supported by this window. This feature is very useful when translating this window into the different languages available in the application.
To include the window for configuring the print in your application: - On the "Proyecto" tab, in the "Proyecto" group, expand "Importar" and select "WINDEV elements and their dependencies".
- Select the subdirectory that contains the elements to import. The print configuration window is in the "Programs\Data\Preset Windows\EN\AAF" subdirectory of the WINDEV installation directory.
- WINDEV lists the elements of the directory. This directory contains the different elements corresponding to the customizable AAFs. The window to import is named "WinDevAaf_ConfigPrintingSchedulerOrganizer.wdw".
- Validate. The window is included in the project and it can be modified. This custom window will be automatically taken into account when running the application.
Remarks: - The window must not be renamed.
- If this window is included in your application, you may not benefit from the improvements made to this window during the different updates. Don't forget to check whether this window has evolved.
- Warning: To modify this window, the corresponding file must not be read-only.. Modify the characteristics of the file in Windows if necessary.
- If you are using an Organizer control in your project, the Print AAF of the Organizer control will also use this window.
"Send by email" option The "Send by email" option is used to:: - print the content of the Organizer control in an "Organizer.pdf" file.
- create a new message in the default messaging application and attach the "Organizer.pdf" file to this message.
The procedure for printing the organizer in the PDF file is identical to the print procedure performed via the "Print the organizer" option (see the previous paragraph).
