SetMiterLimit
The SetMiterLimit
function sets the limit for the length of miter joins for the specified device
context.
BOOL SetMiterLimit(
|
HDC hdc, |
// handle of device
context |
|
FLOAT eNewLimit, |
// new miter limit |
|
PFLOAT peOldLimit |
// previous miter
limit |
|
); |
|
Parameters
hdc
Identifies
the device context.
eNewLimit
Specifies the
new miter limit for the device context.
peOldLimit
Points to a
floating-point value that receives the previous miter limit. If this parameter
is NULL, the previous miter limit is not returned.
Return Values
If the
function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the
function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information,
call GetLastError.
Remarks
The miter
length is defined as the distance from the intersection of the line walls on
the inside of the join to the intersection of the line walls on the outside of
the join. The miter limit is the maximum allowed ratio of the miter length to
the line width.
The default
miter limit is 10.0.
