[PythonReports-users] wx.lib.pdfviewer

[Werner F. B. <wer...@fr...>]

Hi Alex,

Just an FYI.

There was an issue with images not showing, which was fixed by David 
Hughes over the weekend - see attached.

I use it from within my 'report manager' to allow to write a pdf and 
immediately preview it.

from wx.lib.pdfviewer import pdfViewer, pdfButtonPanel

class PDFViewer(sc.SizedFrame):
     def __init__(self, parent, **kwds):
         super(PDFViewer, self).__init__(parent, **kwds)

         contPane = self.GetContentsPane()
         self.buttonpanel = pdfButtonPanel(contPane, wx.NewId(),
                                 wx.DefaultPosition, wx.DefaultSize, 0)
         self.buttonpanel.SetSizerProps(expand=True)
         self.viewer = pdfViewer(contPane, wx.NewId(), wx.DefaultPosition,
                                 wx.DefaultSize,
wx.HSCROLL|wx.VSCROLL|wx.SUNKEN_BORDER)
         self.viewer.SetSizerProps(expand=True, proportion=1)

         # introduce buttonpanel and viewer to each other
         self.buttonpanel.viewer = self.viewer
         self.viewer.buttonpanel = self.buttonpanel


And then to use it I pass the file which was previously created by 
pdf.write:

                 pdfV = PDFViewer(self.view)
                 pdfV.viewer.LoadFile(_filename)
                 pdfV.Show()
