GetWindowRgn

  • 项目

This function obtains a copy of the window region of a window. The window region of a window is set by calling the SetWindowRgn function. The window region determines the area within the window where the system permits drawing. The system does not display any portion of a window that lies outside of the window region.

int GetWindowRgn(
  HWND hWnd, 
  HRGN hRgn
);

Parameters

  • hWnd
    Handle to the window whose window region is to be obtained.
  • hRgn
    Receives a handle to the window region.

  • SIMPLEREGION
    The region is a single rectangle.
  • COMPLEXREGION
    The region is more than one rectangle.
  • ERROR
