Parameter Description
hMetafile Handle to a metafile.
uType Constant that indicates the metafile to set. Possible values are:
  Value Meaning
  ANNMETAFILE_USER [0x7FFF] user-defined metafiles
  ANNMETAFILE_APPROVED [0] predefined metafiles - APPROVED
  ANNMETAFILE_ASSIGNED [1] predefined metafile - ASSIGNED
  ANNMETAFILE_CHECKED [2] predefined metafile -CHECKED
  ANNMETAFILE_CLATPRV [3] predefined metafile - CLIENT ATTORNEY PRIVILEGE
  ANNMETAFILE_COPY [4] predefined metafile - COPY
  ANNMETAFILE_EXTENDED [5] predefined metafile - DRAFT
  ANNMETAFILE_EXTENDED [6] predefined metafile - EXTENDED
  ANNMETAFILE_FAX [7] predefined metafile - FAX
  ANNMETAFILE_FAXED [8] predefined metafile - FAXED
  ANNMETAFILE_IMPORTANT [9] predefined metafile - IMPORTANT
  ANNMETAFILE_INVOICE [10] predefined metafile - INVOICE
  ANNMETAFILE_NOTICE [11] predefined metafile - NOTICE
  ANNMETAFILE_OFFICIAL [12] predefined metafile - OFFICIAL
  ANNMETAFILE_ONFILE [13] predefined metafile - ON FILE
  ANNMETAFILE_PAID [14] predefined metafile - PAID
  ANNMETAFILE_PASSED [15] predefined metafile - PASSED
  ANNMETAFILE_PENDING [16] predefined metafile - PENDING
  ANNMETAFILE_PROCESSED [17] predefined metafile - PROCESSED
  ANNMETAFILE_RECEIVED [18] predefined metafile - RECEIVED
  ANNMETAFILE_REJECTED [19] predefined metafile - REJECTED
  ANNMETAFILE_RELEASE [20] predefined metafile - RELEASE
  ANNMETAFILE_SENT [21] predefined metafile - SENT
  ANNMETAFILE_SHIPPED [22] predefined metafile - SHIPPED
  ANNMETAFILE_TOPSECRET [23] predefined metafile - TOP SECRET
  ANNMETAFILE_URGENT [24] predefined metafile - URGENT
  ANNMETAFILE_VOID [25] predefined metafile - VOID
  ANNMETAFILE_ENCRYPTOR [27] predefined metafile for an encrypt object in the encryptor state
  ANNMETAFILE_DECRYPTOR [28] predefined metafile for an encrypt object in the decryptorstate
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 LAnnotation::IsSelected 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.
  ANNFLAG_CHECKMENU [0x0020] Process objects only if the ANNAUTOTEXT_MENU_METAFILE menu item has been selected.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Only stamp objects, hotspot objects, and freehand hotspot objects can have metafiles. Note that for stamps, setting the metafile destroys the stamp objects bitmap and text. Also, setting a bitmap or text destroys the metafile associated with the stamp object. (The stamp object can have Text, Bitmap or Metafile and each of these cancels the other two).

If uType == ANNMETAFILE_USER, then hMetafile is the metafile handle. You can use any of the windows functions to create a metafile.

If uType is one of the ANNMETAFILE_XXX values, then hMetafile is ignored and the default metafiles are used instead. The annotation DLL has 25 predefined metafiles. You can change the predefined metafiles by using LAnnotation::SetPredefinedMetafile.

Example

//This example sets the metafile in the stamp annotation to the predefined //metafile ANNMETAFILE_IMPORTANT

   RECT rect; 
   ANNRECT annRect; 
   HMETAFILE hNotUsed; 
   LAnnStamp MyAnnStamp;

   annRect.bottom = 150; 
 
   hNotUsed = 0; 
   MyAnnStamp.SetMetafile(hNotUsed, ANNMETAFILE_IMPORTANT, 0); 
 
   MyAnnStamp.SetRect(&annRect); 
   MyAnnStamp.SetVisible(TRUE);

   //Draw the annotation 
   HDC hDC = ::GetDC(hWnd); 
   MyAnnStamp.Draw(hDC,&rect); 
   ::ReleaseDC(hWnd, hDC);  
 
   return SUCCESS;
