CHARFORMAT

The CHARFORMAT structure contains information about character formatting in a rich edit control.

typedef struct _charformat {

UINT cbSize;

_WPAD _wPad1;

DWORD dwMask;

DWORD dwEffects;

LONG yHeight;

LONG yOffset;

COLORREF crTextColor;

BYTE bCharSet;

BYTE bPitchAndFamily;

CHAR szFaceName[LF_FACESIZE];

_WPAD _wPad2;

} CHARFORMAT;

Members

cbSize

Size in bytes of this structure. Must be set before passing the structure to the rich edit control.

dwMask

Members containing valid information or attributes to set. This member can be zero or more of the following values:

Value	Meaning
CFM_BOLD	The CFE_BOLD value of the dwEffects member is valid.
CFM_COLOR	The crTextColor member and the CFE_AUTOCOLOR value of the dwEffects member are valid.
CFM_FACE	The szFaceName member is valid.
CFM_ITALIC	The CFE_ITALIC value of the dwEffects member is valid.
CFM_OFFSET	The yOffset member is valid.
CFM_PROTECTED	The CFE_PROTECTED value of the dwEffects member is valid.
CFM_SIZE	The yHeight member is valid.
CFM_STRIKEOUT	The CFE_STRIKEOUT value of the dwEffects member is valid.
CFM_UNDERLINE.	The CFE_UNDERLINE value of the dwEffects member is valid.

dwEffects

Character effects. This member can be a combination of the following values:

Value	Meaning
CFE_AUTOCOLOR	The text color is the return value of GetSysColor (COLOR_WINDOWTEXT).
CFE_BOLD	Characters are bold.
CFE_ITALIC	Characters are italic.
CFE_STRIKEOUT	Characters are struck out.
CFE_UNDERLINE	Characters are underlined.
CFE_PROTECTED	Characters are protected; an attempt to modify them will cause an EN_PROTECTED notification message.

yHeight

Character height.

yOffset

Character offset from the baseline. If this member is positive, the character is a superscript; if it is negative, the character is a subscript.

crTextColor

Text color. This member is ignored if the CFE_AUTOCOLOR character effect is specified.

bCharSet

Character set value. Can be one of the values specified for the lfCharSet member of the LOGFONT structure.

bPitchAndFamily

Font family and pitch. This member is the same as the lfPitchAndFamily member of the LOGFONT structure.

szFaceName

Null-terminated character array specifying the font face name.

Remarks

This structure is used with the EM_GETCHARFORMAT and EM_SETCHARFORMAT messages.
