Why can't I see when saved in PDF?
What can't you see? The borders?
I see it when print to pdf
I can not see anything
This is great, but how to print Horizontal Header Labels ?
change handlePaintRequest
def handlePaintRequest(self, printer):
document = QtGui.QTextDocument()
cursor = QtGui.QTextCursor(document)
table = cursor.insertTable(
self.table.rowCount(), self.table.columnCount())
for col in range(table.columns()):
cursor.insertText(self.table.horizontalHeaderItem(col).text())
cursor.movePosition(QtGui.QTextCursor.NextCell)
for row in range(table.rows()):
for col in range(table.columns()):
cursor.insertText(self.table.item(row, col).text())
cursor.movePosition(QtGui.QTextCursor.NextCell)
document.print_(printer)
Thanks, but it doesn't seem to work for me so I managed with this code:
def handlePaintRequest(self, printer):
document = QtGui.QTextDocument()
cursor = QtGui.QTextCursor(document)
rows = self.tableData.rowCount()
columns = self.tableData.columnCount()
tableData = cursor.insertTable(rows + 1, columns)
format = tableData.format()
format.setHeaderRowCount(1)
tableData.setFormat(format)
format = cursor.blockCharFormat()
for column in range(columns):
cursor.setCharFormat(format)
cursor.insertText(
self.tableData.horizontalHeaderItem(column).text())
cursor.movePosition(QtGui.QTextCursor.NextCell)
for row in range(rows):
for column in range(columns):
cursor.insertText(
self.tableData.item(row, column).text())
cursor.movePosition(QtGui.QTextCursor.NextCell)
document.print_(printer)
Now, I can't solve to style the borders :(
You did not set style, try this
def handlePaintRequest(self, printer):
document = QtGui.QTextDocument()
cursor = QtGui.QTextCursor(document)
rows = self.tableData.rowCount()
columns = self.tableData.columnCount()
tableData = cursor.insertTable(rows + 1, columns)
format = tableData.format()
### style
format.setBorder(1)
format.setBorderStyle(3)
format.setCellSpacing(0);
format.setTopMargin(0);
format.setCellPadding(4)
###
format.setHeaderRowCount(1)
tableData.setFormat(format)
format = cursor.blockCharFormat()
for column in range(columns):
cursor.setCharFormat(format)
cursor.insertText(
self.tableData.horizontalHeaderItem(column).text())
cursor.movePosition(QtGui.QTextCursor.NextCell)
for row in range(rows):
for column in range(columns):
cursor.insertText(
self.tableData.item(row, column).text())
cursor.movePosition(QtGui.QTextCursor.NextCell)
document.print_(printer)
It works! Thank you so much for the help and response :)
