Gets the current string for the specified index.
#include "ltwrappr.h"
static L_INT LVectorDialog::GetString(uString, pString)
Index into a list of strings. For a list of the strings, refer to Dialog Strings.
Pointer to the buffer to be updated with the current string.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| SUCCESS | The function was successful. |
| < 1 | An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
Before calling this function, call LVectorDialog::GetStringLen to get the length of the text you want to retrieve.
Use LVectorDialog::SetString to modify the automated menu item.
Before calling this function, you must declare a variable as a pointer to a character string. Then, pass the variable in the pString parameter. This function will update the variable with the character string at the given index.
This example will set a custom font and string for the rotate dialog.
