    <p>You can print Visual objects by hosting them in a FrameworkElement and then adding the FrameworkElement to a FixedDocument as content of a FixedPage. The Visual host looks like this:</p> <pre><code>/// &lt;summary&gt; /// Implements a FrameworkElement host for a Visual /// &lt;/summary&gt; public class VisualHost : FrameworkElement { Visual _visual; /// &lt;summary&gt; /// Gets the number of visual children (always 1) /// &lt;/summary&gt; protected override int VisualChildrenCount { get { return 1; } } /// &lt;summary&gt; /// Constructor /// &lt;/summary&gt; /// &lt;param name="visual"&gt;The visual to host&lt;/param&gt; public VisualHost(Visual visual) { _visual = visual; AddVisualChild(_visual); AddLogicalChild(_visual); } /// &lt;summary&gt; /// Get the specified visual child (always /// &lt;/summary&gt; /// &lt;param name="index"&gt;Index of visual (should always be 0)&lt;/param&gt; /// &lt;returns&gt;The visual&lt;/returns&gt; protected override Visual GetVisualChild(int index) { if (index != 0) throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("index out of range"); return _visual; } } </code></pre> <p>Then you can add them and print them like this:</p> <pre><code> // Start the fixed document FixedDocument fixedDoc = new FixedDocument(); Point margin = new Point(96/2, 96/2); // Half inch margins // Add the visuals foreach (Visual nextVisual in visualCollection) { // Host the visual VisualHost host = new VisualHost(nextVisual); Canvas canvas = new Canvas(); Canvas.SetLeft(host, margin.X); Canvas.SetTop(host, margin.Y); canvas.Children.Add(host); // Make a FixedPage out of the canvas and add it to the document PageContent pageContent = new PageContent(); FixedPage fixedPage = new FixedPage(); fixedPage.Children.Add(canvas); ((System.Windows.Markup.IAddChild)pageContent).AddChild(fixedPage); fixedDoc.Pages.Add(pageContent); } // Write the finished FixedDocument to the print queue XpsDocumentWriter xpsDocumentWriter = PrintQueue.CreateXpsDocumentWriter(queue); xpsDocumentWriter.Write(fixedDoc); </code></pre>

    1. COThanks for the snippet. But my question is really more about real world experience with this kind of printing. What problems will arise, will I have to bang my head against the wall more than usually and so on.

    2. COThere are no drawbacks that I've encountered. I've used the method above to print pages filled with WPF objects, and I've also used it to print incredibly complex drawings with thousands of lines and filled areas using DrawingVisual.

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
