L_AnnSetFillMode

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_AnnSetFillMode(hObject, uFillMode, uFlags)

HANNOBJECT hObject;	/* handle to the annotation object */
L_UINT uFillMode;	/* constant that specifies the object's fill mode */
L_UINT uFlags;	/* flags that determine which objects to process */

Sets the fill mode of one or more annotation objects. This function is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

Parameter	Description
hObject	Handle to the annotation object.
uFillMode	The constant that specifies the object's fill mode. Possible fill mode values are:
	Value	Meaning
	ANNMODE_TRANSPARENT	[0] Transparent
	ANNMODE_TRANSLUCENT	[1] Translucent
	ANNMODE_OPAQUE	[2] Opaque
	To see the possible fill modes and patterns, refer to Illustration of Fill Options for Annotations.
uFlags	Flags that determine which objects to process. Most of the flags apply only to container objects. You can combine values when appropriate by using a bitwise OR ( \| ). The following are valid values:
	Value	Meaning
	0	Process only the specified object.
	ANNFLAG_SELECTED	[0x0001] Process only objects that have the selected property set to TRUE. For getting and setting the selected property, use the L_AnnGetSelected and L_AnnSetSelected functions.
	ANNFLAG_NOTTHIS	[0x0004] Process only one level of objects within the specified container, not the container itself. If there are containers within the container, they are modified, but the objects within them are not.
	ANNFLAG_RECURSE	[0x0008] Process objects within a container, and within any subcontainers, down to any level.
	ANNFLAG_NOTCONTAINER	[0x0002] (Used with ANNFLAG_RECURSE) Process objects within containers, not the containers themselves.
	ANNFLAG_NOINVALIDATE	[0x0010] Do not invalidate the affected rectangle in the window. Use this to avoid generating unwanted paint messages.
	ANNFLAG_CHECKMENU	[0x0020] Process objects only if the ANNAUTOTEXT_MENU_FILL menu item has been selected.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function applies to multiple and selected objects based on values of the uFlags parameter.

This function does not affect objects that do not have this property or that do not let you change the property. For descriptions of the various types of objects and their properties, refer to Types of Annotations.

Note that the L_AnnSetROP2 function and the L_AnnSetFillMode function affect each other. If you set uFillMode to ANNFILLMODE_OPAQUE, then uROP2 cannot be ANNROP2_AND. If you set uFillMode to ANNFILLMODE_TRANSLUCENT, then uROP2 has to be ANNROP2_AND. If you set uFillMode to ANNFILLMODE_TRANSPARENT, uROP2 can be anything.
