SetPixel
The SetPixel
function sets the pixel at the specified coordinates to the specified color.
COLORREF SetPixel(
|
HDC hdc, |
// handle of device
context |
|
int X, |
// x-coordinate of
pixel |
|
int Y, |
// y-coordinate of
pixel |
|
COLORREF crColor |
// pixel color |
|
); |
|
Parameters
hdc
Identifies
the device context.
X
Specifies the
x-coordinate, in logical units, of the point to be set.
Y
Specifies the
y-coordinate, in logical units, of the point to be set.
crColor
Specifies the
color to be used to paint the point.
Return Values
If the
function succeeds, the return value is the RGB value that the function sets the
pixel to. This value may differ from the color specified by crColor;
that happens when an exact match for the specified color cannot be found.
If the
function fails, the return value is -1. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
The function
fails if the pixel coordinates lie outside of the current clipping region.
Not all
devices support the SetPixel function. For more information, see GetDeviceCaps.
