How to implement a preview view for printing

Hi all,

I would like to implement my own preview view for printing. I can simulate a print operation by calling the relevant NSView methods in the same way NSPrintOperation does. But NSView can draw different things depending whether it is drawing to a screen or not. The view can ask the current graphics context with [NSGraphicsContext currentContextDrawingToScreen] if it is drawing to screen. A return value of NO means "draw for printing".

The problem is, that I want to tell the view that it is not drawing to screen, but I can't find something like [NSGraphicsContext setCurrentContextDrawingToScreen:NO].

Is there a way to fake this?

How are others doing this?

Thanks in Advance.

Andreas Känner
