The GSelector Print/Export tool allows the user to Print, Export and E-Mail, customized contents from Browse and other windows (see below for a list of Print-enabled windows).
The Print/Export tool opens a Print Preview window which displays any grid or browse in the selected window. The Preview pane carries much of the functionality of the source window - where a display can be expanded in the main window; it can also be expanded in the Print Preview window. Colors used in source windows are replicated, with the exception of the graduated colors used in Demand Graph fields.
From any print-enabled window, select the Menu File option and then the Print/Export option, or press Ctrl+P, to open a Print Preview of the source window, similar to this illustration of the Print Preview pane displaying a zoomed in view of the Category Goals window.
