PolyTextOut
The PolyTextOut function draws several strings using the font and text colors currently
selected in the specified device context.
BOOL PolyTextOut(
HDC hdc,
| // handle of device context
| CONST POLYTEXT *pptxt,
| // address of array of structures that identify strings
| int cStrings
| // number of structures in array
| );
|
|
Parameters
hdc
Identifies the device context.
pptxt
Points to an array of POLYTEXT structures describing the strings to be drawn. The array contains one
structure for each string to be drawn.
cStrings
Specifies the number of POLYTEXT structures in the pptxt array.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
Each POLYTEXT structure contains the coordinates of a reference point that Windows uses to
align the corresponding string of text. An application can specify how the
reference point is used by calling the SetTextAlign function. An application can determine the current text-alignment setting for
the specified device context by calling the GetTextAlign function.
To draw a single string of text, the application should call the ExtTextOut function.
