Print current view
Prints the selected view. A preview window will open.
Most views including the Dynamic Tree view, the Report Output windows and the Editors can be printed.
If the content to be printed is wider than a single page, printing can be done in multi-pages, that is to say that the image is cut out on several juxtaposable pages.
This is very convenient when printing the Dynamic Tree or the Ascendant and Descendant Multi-Generation Tree in order to post it on a wall.
