L_AnnGetPointOptions

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTANN_API L_INT L_AnnGetPointOptions(hObject, pPointOptions, uStructSize)

HANNOBJECT hObject;	/* handle to the annotation object */
pANNPOINTOPTIONS pPointOptions;	/* pointer to an ANNPOINTOPTIONS structure that specifies various point options */
L_UINT uStructSize;	/* size of the ANNPOINTOPTIONS structure */

Gets the options for the specified point annotation object.

Parameter	Description
hObject	Handle to the annotation object.
pPointOptions	Pointer to an ANNPOINTOPTIONS structure to be updated with the various point appearance options for the specified annotation object.
uStructSize	Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pPointOptions, for versioning. Use sizeof(ANNPOINTOPTIONS).

Returns

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

Comments

Use this function to get the point appearance options of an annotation point object. To use this function, declare a variable a type ANNPOINTOPTIONS, and pass the address of this variable as the second argument. For more information, see the documentation for the structure ANNPOINTOPTIONS.

Example

This example toggles the appearance of a point annotation object. The appearance toggles between bitmap to circle.
