POLYTEXT

The POLYTEXT structure describes how the PolyTextOut function should draw a string of text.

typedef struct _POLYTEXT { // ptxt 
    int     x; 
    int     y; 
    UINT    n; 
    LPCTSTR lpstr; 
    UINT    uiFlags; 
    RECT    rcl; 
    int     *pdx; 
} POLYTEXT; 
 

Members

x

Specifies the horizontal reference point for the string. The string is aligned to this point using the current text-alignment mode.

y

Specifies the vertical reference point for the string. The string is aligned to this point using the current text-alignment mode.

n

Specifies the number of characters in the string.

uiFlags

Specifies whether the string is to be opaque or clipped and whether the string is accompanied by an array of character-width values. This member can be one or more of the following values:

Value	Meaning
ETO_OPAQUE	The rectangles given for each string is to be opaqued with the current background color.
ETO_CLIPPED	Each string is to be clipped to its given rectangle.

lpstr

Pointer to a string of text to be drawn by the PolyTextOut function.

rcl

Specifies a rectangle structure that contains the dimensions of the opaquing or clipping rectangle. This member is ignored if neither of the ETO_OPAQUE nor the ETO_CLIPPED value is specified for the uiFlags member.

pdx

Specifies in an array the width value for each character in the string.
