LImageViewer::Create

#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_INT LImageViewer::Create (hWndParent, lpRect, uFlags);

HWND hWndParent;

/* handle to the parent window */

RECT * lpRect;

/* pointer to a structure */

L_UINT uFlags;

/* reserved for future use */

Creates a container, which is a window that contains a number of child windows (cells). Each cell can hold a single image or a list of images. This function is available only in the Medical Imaging Suite toolkits.

Parameter

Description

hWndParent

Handle to the parent or owner window of the container window being created.

lpRect

Pointer to a RECT structure that contains the initial bounds of the container window. The values in this structure are specified in pixels and are relative to the parent window.

uFlags

Reserved for future use. Pass 0.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function will create a window that will hold the container. This container window serves as the "image viewer".

Each container has numerous characteristics, such as the number of rows, the number of columns, border colors, background colors, cursors, etc. that can be set programmatically using LImageViewer::SetProperties. To get the current characteristics of a specific container, call LImageViewer::GetProperties.

A container can also have certain actions, either standard or user-defined, associated with it. These actions are applied either through the mouse or through keystroke combinations. For more information, refer to Applying Actions.

When a container window is viewed in an application, 3-dimensional thick dark lines called splitters are visible to the right of the container window and at the bottom of the container window. In an application, these allow the user to dynamically change the number of rows and columns used to display the images, by dragging an extra splitter into position. The size of the cells can also be modified by moving existing splitters.

While the user drags the splitter using the left mouse button, an inverted line appears showing the new position. If the user clicks the right mouse button while dragging the splitter, this will cancel the dragging.

The maximum number of rows allowed is 4. The maximum number of columns is 8. If the image viewer contains the maximum number of rows, the extra splitter at the bottom of the image viewer will disappear. Likewise, if the image viewer contains the maximum number of columns, the extra splitter to the right of the image viewer will disappear.

When the container created by this function is no longer needed, free the container and any associated memory by calling LImageViewer::Destroy. For every call to LImageViewer::Create there must be a call to LImageViewer::Destroy.
