CGpRegion Class

Provides methods to manage Regions. Regions are used in clipping and hit-testing operations.

The Region object describes an area of the display surface. The area can be any shape. In other words, the boundary of the area can be a combination of curved and straight lines. Regions can also be created from the interiors of rectangles, paths, or a combination of these. Regions are used in clipping and hit-testing operations.

Constructors

Creates a region that is defined by a rectangle.

CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion
CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion (BYVAL pRegion AS CGpRegion PTR)
CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion (BYVAL rc AS GpRectF PTR)
CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion (BYVAL rc AS GpRect PTR)
CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion (BYVAL x AS SINGLE, BYVAL y AS SINGLE, BYVAL nWidth AS SINGLE, BYVAL nHeight AS SINGLE)
CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion (BYVAL x AS INT_, BYVAL y AS INT_, BYVAL nWidth AS INT_, BYVAL nHeight AS INT_)

Creates a region that is defined by a path (a GraphicsPath object) and has a fill mode that is contained in the GraphicsPath object.

CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion (BYVAL pPath AS CGpGraphicsPath PTR)

Creates a region that is defined by data obtained from another region.

CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion (BYVAL regionData AS BYTE PTR, BYVAL nSize AS LONG)

Creates a region that is identical to the region that is specified by a handle to a Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) region.

CONSTRUCTOR CGpRegion (BYVAL hRgn AS HRGN)

Clone

Copies the contents of the existing Region object into a new Region object.

Example

' ========================================================================================
' The following example creates two regions, one from a rectangle and the other from a path.
' Next, the code clones the region that was created from a path and uses a solid brush to
' fill the cloned region. Then, it forms the union of the two regions and fills it.

GetRegionScans

Gets an array of rectangles that approximate this region. The region is transformed by a specified matrix before the rectangles are calculated.

FUNCTION GetRegionScans (BYVAL pMatrix AS CGpMatrix PTR, BYVAL rects AS GpRectF PTR, _

Return value

If the function succeeds, it returns Ok, which is an element of the Status enumeration.

If the function fails, it returns one of the other elements of the Status enumeration.

Remarks

The GetRegionScansCount method can be used first to determine the number of rectangles. Then, you can allocate a buffer that is the correct size and set the rects parameter to point to the buffer.

Xor_

Updates this region to the nonintersecting portions of itself and the specified rectangle's interior.

FUNCTION Xor_ (BYVAL rc AS GpRectF PTR) AS GpStatus
FUNCTION Xor_ (BYVAL rc AS GpRect PTR) AS GpStatus

Updates this region to the nonintersecting portions of itself and the specified path's interior.

FUNCTION Xor_ (BYVAL pPath AS CGpGraphicsPath PTR) AS GpStatus

Updates this region to the nonintersecting portions of itself and another region.

FUNCTION Xor_ (BYVAL pRegion AS CGpRegion PTR) AS GpStatus

Return value

If the function succeeds, it returns Ok, which is an element of the Status enumeration.

If the function fails, it returns one of the other elements of the Status enumeration.
