    <p>I have been working in a big program and one of its functionalities should be to print the contents of the main window. I checked the API and found this example:</p> <p><a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/2d/printing/gui.html" rel="nofollow">http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/2d/printing/gui.html</a></p> <p>it was very helpful, I tried to use that code in my program by placing this inside the actionperformed method of my print button:</p> <pre><code>PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob(); job.setPrintable(this); boolean ok = job.printDialog(); if (ok) { try { job.print(); } catch (PrinterException ex) { /* The job did not successfully complete */ } } </code></pre> <p>If I click the print button, I get a printer dialog and when I tell it to print, it just prints a blank document. I know the above code is not all I need, as I've seen in the API's examples there is a print() method, but apparently they never call it, so it is pretty confusing. I've tried calling and using it many times, but with no success. </p> <p>Also, I think that when I finally get it to print, my window will need to be printed in the landscape orientation, it even may need some scaling. Any ideas on how to do that? </p> <p>I would like any useful help to help me implement this code successfully. I know I should be able to do it by myself just by checking the documentation (I've tried for almost 2 days now) but I can't get it to work. I've learned all the programming I know through the internet. Any help will be greatly appreciated.</p>

    1. CODoes your JFrame have a `public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int i)` method override? If not, consider creating one. Inside of this method, consider calling `printAll(...)` to print the JFrame and all of its components.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
