The GetDCOrgEx function obtains the final translation origin for a specified device context (DC). The final translation origin specifies an offset that Windows uses to translate device coordinates into client coordinates (for coordinates in an application's window). This function supersedes the GetDCOrg function.

BOOL GetDCOrgEx(

HDC hdc,	// device-context handle
LPPOINT lpPoint	// address of structure that receives translation origin
);

Parameters
hdc

Specifies the device context whose final translation origin is to be retrieved.

lpPoint

Points to a POINT structure that the function will set to the final translation origin, in device coordinates.

Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero.

Remarks
The final translation origin is relative to the physical origin of the screen.
