I'm having a problem with the PrintPreviewEx Window everytime I try to print a chart with a background image.

Basically, if I set the ScaleToPage print option before calling the PrintPreviewEx(or PrintPreview for that matter), then the scale of the chart objects and the cropping seems pretty good, but the background image is totally zoomed in.

Similarly, if I don't set the ScaleToPage print option before calling the PrintPreviewEx, then the background image is at what appears to be the proper scale, but the chart items are tiny.

When printing, the chart items and the background image never seem to be at the same scale.

While working with the chart items within the flowchart, the scale always seems to be in sync between the chart items and the background (i.e. when zooming in, zooming out, within overview, etc), but as soon as I try to print the background image with the items, they are nolonger in sync.

I'm using standard graphics files for the backgrounds (i.e. JPG's) and I'm not sure if the following is useful, but it is a code snippet of how I get the background image and set the extents:






Image i = Image.FromFile(d.FileName);









RectangleF r = new RectangleF(new PointF(0,0), i.Size);









_flowChart.DocExtents = r;





_flowChart.BackgroundImage = i;

Like I said, this method seems to work fine until I try to print.

Any ideas?

It looks like my MeasureUnit is Pixel, and it looks like  BkgrImgPos is set to Document.

Thanks, the stretching seems to have done the trick.

After the stretching code was added, I didn't really see a noticable difference when setting the MeasureUnit to Point...do you still recommend I set/reset this value?

I currently plan on always calling ScaleToPage before the print preview, but that's good to know -incase I do things differently in the future.

Thanks again for all the help.
