CreateBrushIndirect
The CreateBrushIndirect function creates a logical brush that has the specified style, color, and
pattern.
HBRUSH CreateBrushIndirect(
CONST LOGBRUSH *lplb
| // pointer to structure describing brush
| );
|
|
Parameters
lplb
Points to a LOGBRUSH structure that contains information about the brush.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value identifies a logical brush.
If the function fails, the return value is NULL.
Remarks
A brush is a bitmap that Windows uses to paint the interiors of filled shapes.
After an application creates a brush by calling CreateBrushIndirect, it can select it into any device context by calling the SelectObject function.
A brush created by using a monochrome bitmap (one color plane, one bit per
pixel) is drawn using the current text and background colors. Pixels represented
by a bit set to 0 are drawn with the current text color; pixels represented by a
bit set to 1 are drawn with the current background color.
If the lbStyle member of the LOGBRUSH structure pointed to by lplb is BS_PATTERN, the bitmap pointed to by the lbHatch member of that structure cannot be a DIB section. A DIB section is a bitmap
created by CreateDibSection. If that bitmap is a DIB section, the CreateBrushIndirect function fails.
When you no longer need the brush, call the DeleteObject function to delete it.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
