Multiple records print with button

Hi,

Is there a way to print multiple pages (records) in a button ?

For one page, it already works with this :

let myPdf := printRecord(this, "name");

Actually, I can already do it with the print button in ninox and then select the "all" function but I would like to do it in a button.

Thanks a lot.

    Please find an example of printing in the attached database. See the ViewEvent table.
    Lots of news on this page:
    - The customer list is retrieved from the 'Customer list' field. This means that the print button takes into account the filter and the order of the list. 
    - The download button asks for the name of the file before downloading it.
    - and, of course, the print button allows you to print multiple records on the same report.

       Hi Jacques, any news on the printing multiple records at the same time? I´m looking for a solution to this topic with the ninox native print engine? Frank

    , 
    I've found a solution to make the printAndSaveMutiRecord function work again:

    "----------------------------
printAndSaveMutiRecord
-----------------------------";
function printAndSaveMutiRecord(strNids : text,reportName : text) do
    var n := split(replace(strNids, " ", ""), ",");
    #{:text:callback
    var config = {
        nid: n[0],
        nids: n,
        reportName: reportName,
        printAllAndClose: !0
    };
    var old = database.printRich;
    database.printRich = (e, t) => {
        old.call(database, e, (err, result) => {
            callback(database.loadFileURL(result.id, e.name, "application/pdf", !0));
        })
        database.printRich = old
    }
    schemas.schemas.envConfig.openDesigner(database, config);
   }#;
end;

      Hello,

      Thank you for being able to offer us a solution. I entered the code below in a button but it does not work. The loading remains in a loop and does not stop. I do not get the desired pdf file. Is this a bug in the code or an error on my part?

      function downloadURL(urlFile : text,destFileName : text) do
    #{:text:callback
        fetch(urlFile)
            .then(resp => resp.blob())
            .then(blob => {
                const url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
                const a = document.createElement('a');
                a.style.display = 'none';
                a.href = url;
                a.download = destFileName;
                document.body.appendChild(a);
                a.click();
                window.URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
                callback(url.url);
            })
}#
end;
function printAndSaveMutiRecord(strNids : text,reportName : text) do
    var n := split(replace(strNids, " ", ""), ",");
    #{:text:callback
    var config = {
        nid: n[0],
        nids: n,
        reportName: reportName,
        printAllAndClose: !0
    };
    var old = database.printRich;
    database.printRich = (e, t) => {
        old.call(database, e, (err, result) => {
            callback(database.loadFileURL(result.id, e.name, "application/pdf", !0));
        })
        database.printRich = old
    }
    schemas.schemas.envConfig.openDesigner(database, config);
   }#
end;
let filterStart := 'Début du filtre';
let filterEnd := 'Fin du filtre';
let filter := (select Transactions
        where date('Date de facturation') >= filterStart and
        date('Date de facturation') <= filterEnd);
var urlFile := printAndSaveMutiRecord(concat(filter.string(ID)), "Facture_template_dynamique");
downloadURL(urlFile, "myFileName.pdf");
importFile(this, urlFile, "myOtherFileName.pdf")

       I just ran the test again using your code, and it works fine on my end. Which version of Ninox are you using, and on which platform?

      I'm using the app on Mac version 3.13.16. I just tried on app.ninox.com and it works fine. Thank you very much!
