Members

cbSizeofstruct

The size of the structure, in bytes.

picType

Type of picture described by this structure, which can be any value from the PICTYPE enumeration. This selects the arm of the union that corresponds to one of the picture type structures below.

bmp

Structure containing bitmap information if picType is PICTYPE_BITMAP.

hbitmap

The HBITMAP handle identifying the bitmap assigned to the picture object.

hpal

The HPALETTE handle identifying the color palette for the bitmap.

wmf

Structure containing metafile information if picType is PICTYPE_METAFILE.

hmeta

The HMETAFILE handle identifying the metafile assigned to the picture object.

xExt

Horizontal extent of the metafile in TWIPS units.

yExt

Vertical extent of the metafile in TWIPS units.

icon

Identifies a structure containing icon information if picType is PICTYPE_ICON.

hicon

The HICON handle identifying the icon assigned to the picture object.

emf

Structure containing enhanced metafile information if picType is PICTYPE_ENHMETAFILE.
