It is greatly dependent + on the system. In Win32, it creates an <a href="emf.html">Enhanced Metafile</a>, + a <b>Bitmap</b> or a <a href="mf.html">CD Metafile</a>; in X-Windows it + creates only a <a href="mf.html">CD Metafile</a>.</p> + +<h3>Use</h3> + + <p>The canvas is created by means of a call to function <font face="Courier"> + <a href="../func/init.html#cdCreateCanvas"> + <strong>cdCreateCanvas</strong></a>(CD_CLIPBOARD, Data)</font>, after which + other functions in the CD library can be called as usual. The + <font face="Courier">Data</font> parameter string is platform-dependent and + varies according to the metafile created. See each metafile's documentation, + but remember to exclude parameter <font face="Courier">"filename".</font></p> + <p>In the Windows environment, if the string "<font face="Courier">-b</font>" + is present, it means that a <b>Bitmap</b> must be created instead of a + metafile, and, if the string <font face="Courier">"-m"</font> is specified, a + <b>CD Metafile</b> will be created. For a <b>Bitmap</b> the remaining string + must contains the bitmap size and optionally its resolution: <em>"-b + widthxheight [resolution]"</em> or in C "<tt><em><strong>%dx%d %g"</strong></em></tt>, + the resolution default is the screen resolution.</p> + <p>In the X-Windows environment, the Display <font face="Courier">("%p")</font> + where the data will be stored must be passed as a parameter before the <b>CD + Metafile</b> parameters. This environment's driver is used only for + applications that use CD to communicate with each other, because only CD Metafiles + are created.</p> + <p>Any amount of such canvases may exist simultaneously. It is important to + note that a call to function + <a href="../func/init.html#cdKillCanvas"> + <font face="Courier"><strong>cdKillCanvas</strong></font></a> is required to + properly copy the data to the Clipboard.</p> + <p>You can interpret the data from the Clipboard using function <strong>cdPlay</strong>. In the X-Windows environment, the + parameter <font face="Courier">"data"</font> for the <strong>cdPlay + </strong>function is the pointer to the + Display where the metafile will be obtained. The <strong>cdRegisterCallback</strong> + must be called for the driver that will interpret the file, except for bitmaps + that the <strong>CD_CLIPBOARD</strong> driver must be used.</p> +<p>To use this driver in Windows using GDI+ is necessary to call +<font face="Courier"><strong> + cdUseContextPlus</strong></font><strong><font face="Courier">(1)</font></strong> +before creating the canvas.</p> + +<h3>Behavior of Functions</h3> + + <p>This driver is greatly platform-dependent. For further detail, see the <b> + Behavior of Functions</b> in each platform: <a href="win32.html">Microsoft + Windows (GDI)</a>, <a href="xwin.html">X-Windows (XLIB)</a>. However, it + should be noted that some functions behave differently from the basic + functions of each platform.</p> + + +</body> + +</html> |
