GET_DATA Data Vector: _getPrinting



Returns the printing status


Syntax
Details

Syntax

CALL SEND (data-vector-id, '_getPrinting', printing);

Argument Type Description
printing
C returns the printing status:


'Y' the viewer is printing the data


'N' the viewer is not printing the data


Details

The _getPrinting method is valid only if the viewer is a table editor.

Note that the viewer, not the model, sets the printing status. The model queries the status but does not set it.

A printing state set to 'Y' informs the model that the viewer is printing its data. Similar to the measuring status controlled by the _setMeasuring and _getMeasuring methods, the models are not usually concerned with this unless the model has an unspecified number of rows or columns. If this is the case, the model needs to check this value when returning information to the viewer in the _getData method call so that it does not continue to return rows or columns while printing is occurring.
