[Solved] Visibility question

Solution: Prevent certain elements from printing by using the new Visibility options in Designer.

Hello All,
Everyone who has version 2 has seen the Firstlook.db and the command buttons at the top, I'm questioning the "Print" command button programing and its visibility issues. When it prints it does not make the buttons invisible. I am having the same issue with my conversion to version 2 as well, is it just me?

You are correct. The folk did not realize that the print changes would affect that part of the sample.

Using @SelectTreeItem to do this won't work any more. You should use the new PrintAForm command or you canuse the new Visibility options in Designer to set the buttons to be visible When Not Printed. This will automatically exclude them from printing.
