L_ConvertFromWMF

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_ConvertFromWMF(pBitmap, uStructSize, hWMF, uWidth, uHeight)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;	/* pointer to a bitmap */
L_UINT uStructSize;	/* size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmap */
HMETAFILE hWmf;	/* handle to the WMF to be converted */
L_UINT uWidth;	/* width */
L_UINT uHeight;	/* height */

Converts a Windows metafile (WMF) into a LEAD Technologies bitmap. When this function is completed, there are two copies of the drawing in memory: the WMF and the original LEAD vector. Freeing one will not affect the other.

Parameter	Description
pBitmap	Pointer to the bitmap to be updated with the converted file.
uStructSize	Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmap, for versioning. Use sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE).
hWMF	Handle to the WMF to be converted.
uWidth	Amount by which to scale the metafile’s original width.
UHeight	Amount by which to scale the metafile’s original height.

Returns

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

Comments

The metafile can be loaded at the original dimension or scaled by using the uWidth and uHeight parameters.

If uWidth == 0 and uHeight == 0 - the metafile is loaded at the size present in the file

If uWidth == 0 and uHeight > 0 - the metafile is stretched so that it has the height uHeight (preserving the aspect ratio)

If uWidth > 0 and uHeight == 0 - the metafile is stretched so that it has the width uWidth (preserving the aspect ratio)

If uWidth > 0 and uHeight > 0 - the metafile is stretched so that it has the width uWidth and height uHeight (the aspect ratio is ignored)

Example

/* This example loads a bitmap, converts it to a WMF, then converts
the WMF back to a bitmap
*/

void ConvertWMFToLead(HWND hWnd, pBITMAPHANDLE pLeadBitmap)
{
   BITMAPHANDLE Bitmap;    /* Bitmap handle for the initial image */
   HMETAFILE   hWmf;

   /* Load a bitmap, keeping its own bits per pixel */
   L_LoadBitmap (TEXT("image3.cmp"), &Bitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), 0, ORDER_BGR, NULL, NULL);

   /* Convert the initial bitmap to a WMF */
   hWmf = L_ConvertToWMF( &Bitmap );

   /* Free the initial bitmap */
   L_FreeBitmap(&Bitmap);

   /* Convert the WMF to create a new LEAD bitmap and preserve the size */
   L_ConvertFromWMF(pLeadBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), hWmf, 0, 0);

   /* Clean up */
   DeleteMetaFile(hWmf);
