LRasterPaint::SetDCExtents

Summary

Sets the boundaries of the device context (DC).

Syntax

L_INT LRasterPaint::SetDCExtents(prcRect)

Parameters

const LPRECT prcRect

Pointer to a RECT structure that contains the boundaries of the user DC.

Returns

Comments

It is better to set the boundaries of the device context (DC) before calling any functions that use the DC. In addition, the device context boundaries should be updated whenever the old boundaries become invalid, such as when the client area of the window has been resized.

Call this function before calling any of the following:

• LRasterPaint::DrawShapeLine

• LRasterPaint::DrawShapeRectangle

• LRasterPaint::DrawShapeRoundRect

• LRasterPaint::DrawShapeEllipse

• LRasterPaint::DrawShapePolygon

• LRasterPaint::DrawShapePolyBezier

• LRasterPaint::RegionSurface

• LRasterPaint::RegionBorder

• LRasterPaint::RegionColor

• LRasterPaint::FillSurface

• LRasterPaint::FillBorder

• LRasterPaint::FillColorReplace

• LRasterPaint::PickColor

• LRasterPaint::ApplyText
