VECTOROBJECT

Summary

The VECTOROBJECT structure is an abstract data type that acts as the base of all 2D/3D objects in the toolkit.

Syntax

typedef  struct  tagVECTOROBJECT 
{ 
   L_INT  nSize; 
   L_INT  nType; 
   L_INT  nId; 
   L_INT  nLayerId; 
   L_INT  nGroupId; 
   L_INT  nROP; 
   DWORD dwFlags; 
   DWORD dwTag; 
}  VECTOROBJECT,  *  pVECTOROBJECT;

Members

L_INT nSize

Size of this structure. Used for versioning.

L_INT nType

Type of vector object. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
VECTOR_ARC	Arc.
VECTOR_CHORD	Chord.
VECTOR_CIRCLE	Circle.
VECTOR_ELLIPSE	Ellipse.
VECTOR_ELLIPTICALARC	Elliptical arc
VECTOR_LINE	Line.
VECTOR_PIE	Pie section.
VECTOR_POLYBEZIER	Poly Bezier curve.
VECTOR_POLYDRAW	Polydraw.
VECTOR_POLYGON	Polygon.
VECTOR_POLYLINE	Polyline.
VECTOR_RASTER	Raster.
VECTOR_RECTANGLE	Rectangle.
VECTOR_TEXT	Text.
VECTOR_VERTEX	3D vertex in space.
VECTOR_SPLINE	Spline object.
VECTOR_HPOLYBEZIER	Heterogeneous Poly Bezier

L_INT nId

Object ID. Reserved for internal use.

L_INT nLayerId

Layer ID. Reserved for internal use.

L_INT nGroupId

Group ID. Reserved for internal use.

L_INT nROP

The object's ROP mode. For more information on valid ROP2 codes, refer to your SDK.

DWORD dwFlags

Flag that indicates the status of the object, can be a combination of the following:

Value	Meaning
VECTOR_OBJECT_SELECTED	The object is currently selected.
VECTOR_OBJECT_HIDDEN	The object is currently hidden.
VECTOR_OBJECT_COMPOSITE	This object is part of a group.
VECTOR_OBJECT_2STAGE_RENDERING	Forces two-stage rendering for objects. This flag is valid only for VECTORCIRCLE, VECTORELLIPSE, VECTORPIE, VECTORTEXT and VECTORPOLYDRAW, if used in any other object type; it will be ignored by the toolkit.
VECTOR_OBJECT_CLIP	Sets the object as a clipping object. Valid only for VECTORPOLYDRAW object.
VECTOR_POLYDRAW_FILL_WINDING	Use non-zero mode for filling the polydraw, Valid only for VECTORPOLYDRAW object.
VECTOR_POLYDRAW_FILL_ALTERNATE	Use odd-even mode for filling the polydraw, Valid only for VECTORPOLYDRAW object.
VECTOR_OBJECT_ENABLE_TRANSPARENCY	Take Bitmap transparency into consideration for Raster objects. Currently working for png files only.
