Syntax

FUNCTION IsClipEmpty () AS BOOLEAN

Description

Determines whether the clipping region of this Graphics object is empty.

####Return value

If the clipping region of a Graphics object is empty, this method returns TRUE; otherwise, it returns FALSE.

Remarks

If the clipping region of a Graphics object is empty, there is no area left in which to draw. Consequently, nothing will be drawn when the clipping region is empty.

Example

' ======================================================================================== ' The following example determines whether the clipping region is empty and, if it isn't, ' draws a rectangle. ' ======================================================================================== SUB Example_IsClipEmpty (BYVAL hdc AS HDC)

' // Create a graphics object from the window device context DIM graphics AS CGpGraphics = hdc ' // Set the scale transform graphics.ScaleTransformForDpi

' // If the clipping region is not empty, draw a rectangle. IF graphics.IsClipEmpty = FALSE THEN

graphics.DrawRectangle(@CGpPen(ARGB_BLACK, 3), 0, 0, 100, 100)

END IF

END SUB ' ========================================================================================
