ActionAfterExport Enum

Specifies whether the resulting file should be automatically opened in the default program, after exporting a document which is currently displayed in the Print Preview.

Namespace : DevExpress.XtraPrinting

Assembly : DevExpress.Printing.v25.2.Core.dll

NuGet Package : DevExpress.Printing.Core

Declaration

csharp
[ResourceFinder(typeof(ResFinder))]
public enum ActionAfterExport
vb
<ResourceFinder(GetType(ResFinder))>
Public Enum ActionAfterExport

Members

NameDescription
None

No action is performed after exporting is finished.

| | Open |

After exporting is finished, the default program which is currently associated with the type of the resulting file is launched, and the file is automatically opened in this application.

| | AskUser |

After exporting is finished, the message box with the following text is shown: “Do you want to open this file?”, so that an end-user may choose whether the resulting file should be automatically opened in the default program, or not.

|

The following properties accept/return ActionAfterExport values:

Remarks

Use this enumeration’s members to specify whether the resulting file should be automatically opened. This enumeration’s values are used by the PrintPreviewOptions.ActionAfterExport property.

Example

This example illustrates how to specify the primary export options of a report by using the XtraReport.ExportOptions property. These options are taken into account when a document is being exported from a print preview.

This example presumes that a report is exported silently, without prompting an end-user to customize the export options.

All available export options are listed in the ExportOptionKind enumeration.
