IDL/Windoze3.1 - How to print image from within IDL? [message #5363]

Hi all,

In an IDL widget application running under Win3.1/Win95, I would like
to implement a button to print out the content of a draw widget to
the standard printer.
I am aware of the "Print Graphics" option in the main IDL window,
however, my application is intended to run with an IDL runtime license,
and I do not know if this option is available in that case.
Spawning a child process won't work either because under Windoze every
spawn generates an annoying DOS box.

A similar problem is the transfer of a draw widget's content to the
clipboard. Apparently, this is only possible using ^G and pointing the
mouse to the respective widget. Of course this is not the way a standard
Win application should behave.

Any solutions known for these problems? Please don't tell me to abandon
Windoze; unfortunately I have to stick with that horror :-)
