ANNMETAFILE_DECRYPTOR	[28] predefined metafile for an encrypt object in the decryptor state

HMETAFILE hMetafile

Handle to the metafile used to replace the specified predefined metafile. Passing NULL will reset the predefined metafile specified by uType to its original metafile.

Returns

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

Comments

This function affects the rubber stamp objects, the hotspot objects and the freehand hotspot objects created by the automation object. For example, if you replace the ANNMETAFILE_APPROVED default metafile with another metafile, then objects created by the automation mode when the ANNTOOL_STAMP_APPROVED tool is set will look like the new metafile.

A predefined metafile can be reset to its original metafile by passing NULL for hMetafile. For example, to reset the Hotspot and freehand hotspot predefined metafiles to the original value, do the following:

LAnnotation::SetPredefinedMetafile(ANNMETAFILE_HOTSPOT, (HMETAFILE) NULL);
