  If I first call frxPrinters.FillPrinters and then Report.DesignReport I get an EInvalidOperation exception with message 'Canvas does not allow drawing'.
  
  Example:

  var
    Report: TfrxReport;
  begin
    Report := TfrxReport.Create(nil);
    frxPrinters.FillPrinters;
    Report.DesignReport;
  end;
  

  I'm using the latest version (4.5.57).

  
  Hi,
  I get the error too.
  I use FastReport 4.5.13 and if I loadfromfile the report and then call the designer I get the error BUT
  if I call the designer and INSIDE the designer I open the report, its works fine
  my code :

  frxReport1.LoadFromFile(ReportFileName);
  frxReport1.DesignReport;
  

  
  I think it's a bug inherited from FR3.

  Hi, I have fixed the error.
  May be it's works for you [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> In the properties of the report, Instead of setting the property "printer" to "default printer", I still had an old printer setting which I no more have in the list of available printers on my computer.[/img]
