#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LBitmapBase::Shear(nAngle, bHorizontal=TRUE, crFill=0)

Parameters

L_INT nAngle

The angle of slant. Positive values are for clockwise angles; negative values are for counterclockwise angles. The angle is expressed in hundredths of degrees, with a limit of 4500 (45 degrees).

L_BOOL bHorizontal

Flag that indicates the direction of the shear. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
TRUE	Horizontal shear.
FALSE	Vertical shear.

COLORREF crFill

The COLORREF value that specifies the fill color. You can specify a COLORREF value, such as the return value of the Windows RGB macro, or you can use the PALETTEINDEX macro to specify a palette color.

Returns

Value	Meaning
