'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Shared Function Print( _
   ByVal sectionDocument As SectionDocument, _
   ByVal showPrintDialog As Boolean _
) As Boolean

public static bool Print( 
   SectionDocument sectionDocument,
   bool showPrintDialog
)

Parameters

sectionDocument: The section document to be printed.
showPrintDialog: Specifies whether the print dialog should be shown to the user. If true, the print dialog is displayed, allowing the user to select printer settings.

Return Value

true if the print operation completes successfully; otherwise, false.

Remarks

This method allows for basic customization of the printing process by controlling the visibility of the print dialog. It defaults to showing the print progress dialog and using the printing thread for the operation, simplifying the printing process for common use cases.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to print a section document with the print dialog:

SectionDocument sectionDocument = new SectionDocument();
sectionDocument.Load("C:\\Report.rdf");
bool printSuccess = sectionDocument.Print(showPrintDialog: true);
if (printSuccess)
    Console.WriteLine("Printing completed successfully.");
else
    Console.WriteLine("Printing failed.");
