EditCopyPicture Method
Copies the active view as a picture or an OLE object, or exports the active view to a GIF image file.
Syntax
expression**.EditCopyPicture(Object, ForPrinter, SelectedRows, FromDate, ToDate, FileName, ScaleOption, MaxImageHeight, MaxImageWidth, MeasurementUnits)**
*expression * Optional. An expression that returns an Application object.
Object Optional Boolean. True if the view should be copied as an OLE object. The default value is False.
ForPrinter Optional Long. Specifies where to copy the view. Can be one of the following PjCopyPictureFor constants: pjScreen, pjPrinter, or pjGIF. If Object is True, ForPrinter is ignored. The default value is pjScreen.
SelectedRows Optional Boolean. True if Microsoft Office Project 2003 copies only the selected rows. False if the program copies all visible rows.
FromDate Optional Variant. The beginning of the timescale for the copied picture. If Object is True, FromDate is ignored. If FromDate is specified and ToDate is not, Project will use the last entered date for the end of the timescale. If that would create a negative time span, the program will use the latest timescale date visible in the active view. The default value is the earliest timescale date visible in the active view.
ToDate Optional Variant. The end of the timescale for the copied picture. If Object is True, ToDate is ignored. If ToDate is specified and FromDate is not, Project will use the last entered date for the beginning of the timescale. If that would create a negative time span, the program will use the earliest timescale date visible in the active view. The default value is the latest timescale date visible in the active view.
FileName Optional String. The file name for the GIF image file. If ForPrinter is pjGIF, FileName is required. If Object is True, or ForPrinter is not pjGIF, FileName is ignored.
PjCopyPictureScaleOption
Constant | Description |
---|---|
pjCopyPictureKeepRange | Maintains the selection, regardless of size. If the picture exceeds the amount of available memory, it will be cropped to the maximum available size. |
pjCopyPictureScale | Scales the picture to MaxImageWidth by MaxImageHeight MeasurementUnits without maintaining the aspect ratio. |
pjCopyPictureScaleWRatio | Scales the picture to MaxImageWidth by MaxImageHeight MeasurementUnits and maintains the aspect ratio. |
pjCopyPictureShowOptions | Displays the Copy Picture Options dialog box. |
pjCopyPictureTimescale | Adjusts the timescale (zooms out) so that the picture fits MaxImageWidth by MaxImageHeight MeasurementUnits. |
pjCopyPictureTruncate | Truncates any portion of the picture that exceeds the boundaries of MaxImageWidth by MaxImageHeight MeasurementUnits. |
MaxImageHeight Optional Double. Specifies the maximum height of the picture. The accepted range of MaxImageHeight is 1 to 22 inches (2.54 to 55.88 centimeters). The default value is 22 (inches).
MaxImageWidth Optional Double. Specifies the maximum width of the picture. The accepted range of MaxImageWidth is 1 to 22 inches (2.54 to 55.88 centimeters). The default value is 22 (inches).
PjMeasurementUnits
Constant | Description |
---|---|
pjInches | The MaxImageWidth and MaxImageHeight values are in inches. |
pjCentimeters | The MaxImageWidth and MaxImageHeight values are in centimeters. |
pjDefault | The MaxImageWidth and MaxImageHeight values are in the default system measurement units. The default Measurement System is selected in the Regional and Language Options of the Windows Control Panel. |
