L_AnnHitTest

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTANN_API L_INT L_AnnHitTest(hObject, pPoint, puResult, phObjectHit, pHitTestInfo, uStructSize)

HANNOBJECT hObject;

/* handle to the container object */

LPPOINT pPoint;

/* pointer to a structure */

L_UINT *puResult;

/* position on the object at the point */

pHANNOBJECT phObjectHit;

/* address of the variable to be updated */

pANNHITTESTINFO pHitTestInfo;

/* pointer to a ANNHITTESTINFO structure that provides hit test information */

L_UINT uStructSize;

/* size of the ANNHITTESTINFO structure */

This function gets the handle to the annotation object that is located at a specified point. (If objects overlap, it gets the front object.) and additional information about the annotation object handle if the handle is a default or user-defined handle. This function is available in the Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.

Parameter

Description

hObject

Handle to the container object that sets the scope of the search.

pPoint

Pointer to the POINT structure that specifies the point to test. Coordinates are relative to the associated window's client area.

puResult

The position on the annotation object that was found at the specified point. Possible values are:

 

ANNHIT_NONE [0]

 

ANNHIT_BODY [1]

 

ANNHIT_HANDLE [2]

 

ANNHIT_NAME [3]

 

ANNHIT_USER_HANDLE [4]

 

ANNHIT_ROTATE_HANDLE [5]

 

ANNHIT_MULTISELECT_HANDLE[6]

 

ANNHIT_MULTISELECT_ROTATE_HANDLE[7]

 

ANNHIT_MULTISELECT_BODY[8]

 

If (*puResult) is updated with ANNHIT_HANDLE or ANNHIT_USER_HANDLE, then pHitTestInfo contains additional information about the annotation object handle. For example, if (*puResult) is ANNHIT_ROTATE_HANDLE, pHitTestInfo->nHandleID will be either ROTATE_HANDLE_CENTER_ID[100] or ROTATE_HANDLE_GRIPPER_ID[101] to identify which rotate handle was hit.

 

ANNHIT_NONE [0]

phObjectHit

Address of the variable to be updated with the handle to the annotation object that is found at the specified point.

pHitTestInfo

Pointer to a ANNHITTESTINFO structure that provides hit test information whenever (*puResult) is updated with ANNHIT_HANDLE or ANNHIT_USER_HANDLE.

uStructSize

Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pHitTestInfo, for versioning. Use sizeof(ANNHITTESTINFO).

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Before calling this function, you must declare a variable of data type HANNOBJECT. You can then pass the address of the variable in the phObjectHit parameter, which this function will update with the handle of the object located at the specified point.

Example

This example uses the caller's mouse coordinates to get the handle to the annotation object at the specified coordinates. The part of the clicked annotation is displayed in the Output window. If the result of the hit test is a user handle, additional information about the handle is displayed.
