LAnnContainer::Create

Summary

Creates and initializes an annotation object that is a container.

Syntax

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LAnnContainer::Create(hWnd, pRect, bVisible=FALSE)

Parameters

HWND hWnd

Handle to the window for the container.

pANNRECT pRect

Pointer to the LEADTOOLS ANNRECT structure that specifies the container. The ANNRECT structure is like a Windows RECT structure, except that it uses double-precision floating point values.

Coordinates of an object's rectangle are relative to its container object. The coordinates are interpreted using the container's scaling factors and offsets, which are described in Low-Level Coordinate System for Annotations.

L_BOOL bVisible

Flag that indicates whether the container will be visible. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
TRUE	The container is visible.
FALSE	The container is not visible.

Returns

Value	Meaning
SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

You should not call this function during processing of WM_LTANNEVENT if wParam equals LTANNEVENT_REMOVE or LTANNEVENT_INSERT or during the LAnnContainer::EnumerateCallBack virtual function!
