UnrealizeObject function (wingdi.h)

The UnrealizeObject function resets the origin of a brush or resets a logical palette. If the hgdiobj parameter is a handle to a brush, UnrealizeObject directs the system to reset the origin of the brush the next time it is selected. If the hgdiobj parameter is a handle to a logical palette, UnrealizeObject directs the system to realize the palette as though it had not previously been realized. The next time the application calls the RealizePalette function for the specified palette, the system completely remaps the logical palette to the system palette.

Syntax

BOOL UnrealizeObject(
       HGDIOBJ h
);

Parameters

h

Return value

If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero.

Remarks

The UnrealizeObject function should not be used with stock objects. For example, the default palette, obtained by calling GetStockObject (DEFAULT_PALETTE), is a stock object.

A palette identified by hgdiobj can be the currently selected palette of a device context.

If hgdiobj is a brush, UnrealizeObject does nothing, and the function returns TRUE. Use SetBrushOrgEx to set the origin of a brush.
