LVectorBase::GetObjectParallelogram

Summary

Gets the parallelogram that contains the specified object(s).

Syntax

virtual L_INT LVectorBase::GetObjectParallelogram(pMin, pMax, dwFlags=0)

Parameters

pVECTORPOINT pMin

Pointer to a VECTORPOINT structure to be updated with the minimum point of the bounding parallelogram of the specified object.

pVECTORPOINT pMax

Pointer to a VECTORPOINT structure to be updated with the maximum point of the bounding parallelogram of the specified object.

L_UINT32 dwFlags

Flag that indicates which parallelogram to use when updating the pMin and pMax parameters. Possible values are:

Returns

Comments

Obtains the bounding parallelogram of a single object, several selected objects, or all objects within the vector handle.

   UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(hWnd); 
 
   L_INT          nRet; 
   VECTORPOINT    LeftTop, RightBottom; 
   POINT          LeftTop2D, RightBottom2D; 
 
   // Get drawing logical extents  
   nRet = pVector->GetObjectParallelogram(&LeftTop, &RightBottom); 
   if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
 
   // Convert to physical to get the rect where the drawing will painted
