SetWindowRgn
The SetWindowRgn function sets the window region of a window. The window region determines the
area within the window where the operating system permits drawing. The
operating system does not display any portion of a window that lies outside of the
window region
int SetWindowRgn(
HWND hWnd,
| // handle to window whose window region is to be set
| HRGN hRgn,
| // handle to region
| BOOL bRedraw
| // window redraw flag
| );
|
|
Parameters
hWnd
Handle to the window whose window region is to be set.
hRgn
Handle to a region. The function sets the window region of the window to this
region.
If hRgn is NULL, the function sets the window region to NULL.
bRedraw
Boolean value that specifies whether the operating system redraws the window
after setting the window region. If bRedraw is TRUE, the operating system does so; otherwise, it does not.
Typically, you set bRedraw to TRUE if the window is visible.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero.
Remarks
If the bRedraw parameter is TRUE, the system sends the WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING and WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED messages to the window.
The coordinates of a window's window region are relative to the upper-left
corner of the window, not the client area of the window.
After a successful call to SetWindowRgn, the operating system owns the region specified by the region handle hRgn. The operating system does not make a copy of the region. Thus, you should
not make any further function calls with this region handle. In particular, do
not close this region handle.
To obtain the window region of a window, call the GetWindowRgn function.

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 » |
