The Graphics::GetVisibleClipBounds method gets a rectangle that encloses the visible clipping region of this Graphics object. The visible clipping region is the intersection of the clipping region of this Graphics object and the clipping region of the window.

Syntax

Status GetVisibleClipBounds(
  RectF *rect
);

Parameters

rect

Pointer to a RectF object that receives the rectangle that encloses the visible clipping region.

Return value

If the method succeeds, it returns Ok, which is an element of the Status enumeration.

If the method fails, it returns one of the other elements of the Status enumeration.

Remarks

Examples

The following example sets the clipping region for the Graphics object. It then gets a rectangle that encloses the visible clipping region and fills that rectangle.

VOID Example_GetVisibleClipBounds2(HDC hdc)
{
   Graphics graphics(hdc);

   // Set the clipping region.
   graphics.SetClip(RectF(100.0f, 100.0f, 200.0f, 100.0f));

   // Get a bounding rectangle for the clipping region.
   RectF boundRect;
   graphics.GetVisibleClipBounds(&boundRect);

   // Fill the bounding rectangle.
   graphics.FillRectangle(&SolidBrush(Color(255, 0, 0, 0)), boundRect);
}
