LVectorWindow::HandlePalette

#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_BOOL LVectorWindow::HandlePalette(uMsg, wParam, lParam)

UINT uMsg;	/* window message */
WPARAM wParam;	/* first parameter of the window message */
LPARAM lParam;	/* second parameter of the window message */

Call this function to let the vector window automatically handle the palette based on the specified message.

Parameter	Description
uMsg	The window message.
wParam	The first parameter of the window message.
lParam	The second parameter of the window message.

Returns

TRUE	The vector window was repainted.
FALSE	The vector window was not repainted.

Comments

This function works with the following Windows messages:

WM_PALETTECHANGED

WM_QUERYNEWPALETTE

WM_SYSCOLORCHANGE

This function will respond to these messages by automatically handling palette issues properly.

You are responsible for calling this function with the appropriate window message to let the class object's window respond to palette changes.

Example

The following example derives a class from LVectorWindow, and overrides HandlePalette, OnPaletteChanged, OnQueryNewPalette, OnSysColorChange, StartChanging, EndChanging member functions. The result is class that displays all vector window messages in the vector window title bar. To use this example, derive a class from LMyVectorWindow, and use the class object as you would a LVectorWindow object.
