L_AnnAddUserHandle

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTANN_API L_INT L_AnnAddUserHandle(hObject, pAnnHandle)

HANNOBJECT hObject;

/* handle to the annotation object */

pANNHANDLE pAnnHandle;

/* pointer to a structure that defines the user handle */

Adds a user-defined handle to an annotation object, where pAnnHandle is a pointer to the structure defining an annotation handle.

This function is available in the Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.

Parameter

Description

hObject

Handle to the annotation object to which to add the user handle.

pAnnHandle

Pointer to a structure that defines the user handle.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Before calling this function, you must create the annotation object.

Call this function one or more times to add user handles to an existing annotation object.

The user handle location can be defined using container coordinates or client coordinates.

Client coordinates factor in the current zoom factor, and the horizontal and vertical scrolling.

For more information on defining a user handle, see the documentation for the ANNHANDLE structure.
