L_ContainerSetScalar

#include "LtCon.h"

L_LTCON_API L_INT L_ContainerSetScalar(pContainer, pvptScalarNum, pvptScalarDen)

Sets the container scaling values that will be used to adjust the coordinate values.

Parameters

pCONTAINERHANDLE pContainer

Pointer to a container handle.

pVECTORPOINT pvptScalarNum

Pointer to a structure of type VECTORPOINT that contains the numerator for scaling the coordinates in the X-, Y-, and Z-directions.

pVECTORPOINT pvptScalarDen

Pointer to structure of type VECTORPOINT that contains the numerator for scaling the coordinates in the X-, Y-, and Z-directions.

Returns

Comments

When assigning an external representation to the container, every point (Xa, Ya) in the external representation is transformed by the container to the point (Xc, Yc) by using the following steps:

1. Add offsets:

      Xb = Xa + nXOffset 

2. Multiply by scalars:

      Xc = (Xb * nXScalarNum) / nXScalarDen 
      Yc = (Yb * nYScalarNum) / nYScalarDen 

The default offset values are nXOffset=0, nYOffset=0, and nZOffset=0.

The default scalar values are:

ScalarNum.x = 1 
ScalarNum.y = 1 
ScalarNum.z = 1 
ScalarDen.x = 1 
ScalarDen.y = 1 
ScalarDen.z = 1
