ATK Howto: Adding a printable view
|
Summary
In this howto you will create a popup window with altered format stripping away elements that interfere with cleanly rendering the information on a printer or other alternative output device.
Basic Process
I am sure there are many ways of achieving this, however this presents a method that I used, that worked for my application. There are four main development tasks to complete:
1. Develop a derived attribute capable of rendering the appropriate view.
2. Develop a node which uses the derived attribute.
3. Add a button to the node which pops up the the window.
4. Develop the appropriate template and style sheets if necessary.
