The CONTAINERMETRICS structure holds the information that controls the container's behavior.

Member	Description
nSize	Size of this structure.
dwMask	Flags that indicate which members of this structure contain valid information. This member must be filled prior to calling LContainer::GetMetrics or LContainer::SetMetrics. Possible values are given below. These values may be combined using the bitwise OR operator (\|).
	Value	Meaning
	CMF_ALL	All the fields will be used.
	CMF_BORDERCOLOR	Indicates that the crBorder field will be used.
	CMF_HANDLEWIDTH	Indicates that the nHandleWidth field will be used
	CMF_HANDLEHEIGHT	Indicates that the nHandleHeight field will be used
	CMF_HANDLECOLOR	Indicates that the crHandle field will be used
	CMF_ENABLEHANDLES	Indicates that the fEnableHandles field will be used
	CMF_LIMITS	Indicates that the rcLimits field will be used
	CMF_LOGTEXTFONT	Indicates that the logTextFont field will be used.
	CMF_TEXTALIGNMENT	Indicates that the nTextAlignment will be used
	CMF_PALETTE	Indicates that the hPalette field will be used
crBorder	Specifies the color of the pen used for drawing objects within the container. The default color is RGB ( 0, 0, 0 ).
nHandleWidth	Specifies the width, in logical units, of the handle used when editing an object. The default value is 4.
nHandleHeight	Specifies the height, in logical units, of the handle used when editing an object. The default value is 4.
crHandle	Specifies the color of the pen used when drawing the handle. The default color is RGB (0, 0, 0 ).

fEnableHandles	Flag that indicates whether the handle used when editing objects within the container is enabled or disabled. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	TRUE	The handle is enabled. (Default)
	FALSE	The handle is disabled.

rcLimits	RECT structure that contains the boundaries of the container. Any point outside the specified boundaries will not be processed. The container transformation values (scaling and offset) are taken into consideration when determining whether the point is inside the container. The default container boundaries are {0, 0, 0, 0 }. Therefore, the user should set the limits value before getting data from the container.
logTextFont	Pointer to a LOGFONT structure that contains the characteristics of the logical font used with the container text object(s). The default values for this field are:
	logTextFont.lfHeight	14
	logTextFont.lfWidth	0
	logTextFont.lfEscapement	0
	logTextFont.lfOrientation	0
	logTextFont.lfWeight	FW_NORMAL
	logTextFont.lfItalic	FALSE
	logTextFont.lfUnderline	FALSE
	logTextFont.lfStrikeOut	FALSE
	logTextFont.lfCharSet	ANSI_CHARSET
	logTextFont.lfOutPrecision	OUT_DEFAULT_PRECIS
	logTextFont.lfClipPrecision	CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS
	logTextFont.lfQuality	DEFAULT_QUALITY
	logTextFont.lfPitchAndFamily	FF_DONTCARE
	logTextFont.lfFaceName	Times New Roman
nTextAlignment	A constant that specifies the text alignment of the container's text object(s), enumerated as CONTAINERALIGNMENT. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	CONTAINER_ALIGNMENT_LEFT	Left-aligns text in the container text object.
	CONTAINER_ALIGNMENT_HCENTER	Centers text in the container text object.
	CONTAINER_ALIGNMENT_RIGHT	Right-aligns text in the container text object.
	The default value for the field is CONTAINER_ALIGNMENT_LEFT.
hPalette	Handle of the palette used to draw the container objects. This should be the same palette used to paint the window that owns the container. The default value for this field is NULL.
