PRINTING FORMS

Is it possible for me to create a button to place on a form that will print just the fields on the form's first tab?  Also, I notice that the printed pdf reduces rich text to simple text, losing all the bullets and paragraph breaks. Is there a way to avoid that? Thanks!

    Create (or modify) a print layout with your desired fields.

    Then create a button to your form:

    printRecord(Id, "youPrintLayoutName")

    Hello ntrim,

    Thanks for your code. Do you know how we can replace the "Id" in this code by another cell (Name for example)?

    Thanks for your help and have a nice day.

    The "Id" just indicates the record you are browsing (for the printout). You have no reason to change that.

    Same question from me, Nick. I've got different views where records are listed by different fields. What I'd like to achieve is a button in the form that clicks the next record in the view currently on display. Since there are multiple views and only one button, does this require some scripting gymnastics...? Many thanks for your help!

    Ninox is under development and soon, I believe, they will make some things more simple.

    Let's hope! I love the platform, but there's a lot of DIY.

    Thanks for your feedback, Ntrim, but I asked this because I want to automaticaly rename my preview (downloaded in .pdf)

    Maybe you have a solution for this?

    Have a nice day,

    David W.
