SelectClipPath
The SelectClipPath function selects the current path as a clipping region for a device context,
combining the new region with any existing clipping region by using the
specified mode.
BOOL SelectClipPath(
HDC hdc,
| // handle of device context
| int iMode
| // clipping mode
| );
|
|
Parameters
hdc
Identifies the device context of the path.
iMode
Specifies the way to use the path. The following values are allowed:
Value
| Meaning
| RGN_AND
| The new clipping region includes the intersection (overlapping areas) of the
current clipping region and the current path.
| RGN_COPY
| The new clipping region is the current path.
| RGN_DIFF
| The new clipping region includes the areas of the current clipping region with
those of the current path excluded.
| RGN_OR
| The new clipping region includes the union (combined areas) of the current
clipping region and the current path.
| RGN_XOR
| The new clipping region includes the union of the current clipping region and
the current path but without the overlapping areas.
