Re: Print preview beyond the regular framework

So did you single-step into AfxGetTopLevelFrame and see what it is returning?

Part of the problem I see in the new framework is that it makes a huge number of
unsustainable assumptions about reality, more so than the old framework made.

I went a little deeper in it and compared it step by step to regular
SDI dummy application. The first significant difference is here:

[MFC]
void CFrameWndEx::OnSetPreviewMode(BOOL bPreview, CPrintPreviewState*
pState)
{
ASSERT_VALID(this);

CFrameWndEx* pMainFrame = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CFrameWndEx,
AFXGetTopLevelFrame(this));

if (pMainFrame != NULL)
{
pMainFrame->SetPrintPreviewFrame(bPreview ? this : NULL);
}
[/MFC]

where pMainFrame is NULL in my app but not in the dummy SDI. But no
solution yet.
