CHARFORMAT  DKJUDR 

The CHARFORMAT structure contains information about character formatting in a rich edit control.

typedef struct _charformat { 

    UINT     cbSize;

    _WPAD    _wPad1;

    DWORD    dwMask;

    DWORD    dwEffects;

    LONG     yHeight;

    LONG     yOffset;

    COLORREF crTextColor;

    BYTE     bCharSet;

    BYTE     bPitchAndFamily;

    CHAR    szFaceName[LF_FACESIZE];

    _WPAD    _wPad2;

} CHARFORMAT;

 

Members

cbSize

Size in bytes of this structure. Must be set before passing the structure to the rich edit control.

dwMask

Members containing valid information or attributes to set. This member can be zero or more of the following values:

Value

Meaning

CFM_BOLD

The CFE_BOLD value of the dwEffects member is valid.

CFM_COLOR

The crTextColor member and the CFE_AUTOCOLOR value of the dwEffects member are valid.

CFM_FACE

The szFaceName member is valid.

CFM_ITALIC

The CFE_ITALIC value of the dwEffects member is valid.

CFM_OFFSET

The yOffset member is valid.

CFM_PROTECTED

The CFE_PROTECTED value of the dwEffects member is valid.

CFM_SIZE

The yHeight member is valid.

CFM_STRIKEOUT

The CFE_STRIKEOUT value of the dwEffects member is valid.

CFM_UNDERLINE.

The CFE_UNDERLINE value of the dwEffects member is valid.

 

dwEffects

Character effects. This member can be a combination of the following values:

Value

Meaning

CFE_AUTOCOLOR

The text color is the return value of GetSysColor9S7O1D (COLOR_WINDOWTEXT).

CFE_BOLD

Characters are bold.

yHeight

Character height.

yOffset

Character offset from the baseline. If this member is positive, the character is a superscript; if it is negative, the character is a subscript.

crTextColor

Text color. This member is ignored if the CFE_AUTOCOLOR character effect is specified.

bCharSet

Character set value. Can be one of the values specified for the lfCharSet member of the LOGFONT5M4ITK structure.

bPitchAndFamily

Font family and pitch. This member is the same as the lfPitchAndFamily member of the LOGFONT structure.

szFaceName

Null-terminated character array specifying the font face name.
