LAnnContainer::SetFontSize

Show in webframe

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LAnnContainer::SetFontSize(dFontSize, uFlags=0)

L_DOUBLE dFontSize;

/* the font size to set */

L_UINT uFlags;

/* flags that indicate which objects to process */

NOTE:

THIS FUNCTION IS NOW INHERITED DIRECTLY FROM THE PARENT LANNOTATION CLASS.

Sets the font size of the annotation object.

Parameter

Description

dFontSize

The font size to set, expressed as an unscaled value relative to the container.

uFlags

Flags that determine which objects to process. Most of the flags apply only to container objects. You can combine values when appropriate by using a bitwise OR ( | ). The following are valid values:

 

Value

Meaning

 

0

Process only the specified object.

 

ANNFLAG_SELECTED

[0x0001] Process only objects that have the selected property set to TRUE. For getting and setting the selected property, use the LAnnContainer::GetSelectItems and LAnnotation::SetSelected functions.

 

ANNFLAG_NOTTHIS

[0x0004] Process only one level of objects within the specified container, not the container itself. If there are containers within the container, they are modified, but the objects within them are not.

 

ANNFLAG_RECURSE

[0x0008] Process objects within a container, and within any subcontainers, down to any level.

 

ANNFLAG_NOTCONTAINER

[0x0002] (Used with ANNFLAG_RECURSE) Process objects within containers, not the containers themselves.

 

ANNFLAG_NOINVALIDATE

[0x0010] Do not invalidate the affected rectangle in the window. Use this to avoid generating unwanted paint messages.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

The font size of an object is relative to its container object. The height of a font is interpreted using the container's vertical scaling factor. For example, suppose you want the font to appear as a 10-point font on your screen using the current scaling factor. You would use the following calculation, where A is the pixel height of a 10-point font, B is the value that you get from the LAnnotation::GetScalarX function, and C is the value that you get from the LAnnotation::GetScalarY function:

dFontSize = A / sqrt( B * C )

For more information, refer to Low-Level Coordinate System for Annotations.

This function applies to multiple and selected objects based on values of the uFlags parameter.

This function does not affect objects that do not have this property or that do not let you change the property. For descriptions of the various types of objects and their properties, refer to Types of Annotations.
