#define DrawText	(	hdc,
		text,
		n,
		rc,
		format
	)	DrawTextEx2 (hdc, text, n, rc, 0, format, NULL)

Draws a formatted text in a rectangle.

Defined as a macro calling DrawTextEx2 passing nIndent as 0 and firstline as NULL.

See also: DrawTextEx2

Definition at line 7265 of file gdi.h.

#define DrawTextEx	(	hdc,
		text,
		n,
		rc,
		indent,
		format
	)	DrawTextEx2 (hdc, text, n, rc, indent, format, NULL)

Draws a formatted text in a rectangle.

Defined as a macro calling DrawTextEx2 passing firstline as NULL.

See also: DrawTextEx2

Definition at line 7276 of file gdi.h.

#define GetTextAboveLineExtra ( hdc ) GetDCAttr (hdc, DC_ATTR_ALINE_EXTRA)

Retrieves the current spacing above line for the DC.

See also: SetTextAboveLineExtra

Definition at line 6849 of file gdi.h.

#define GetTextAlign ( hdc ) GetDCAttr (hdc, DC_ATTR_TEXT_ALIGN)

Retrieves the current text-alignment flags of a DC.

Parameters

hdc	The device context.

Returns: The return value is one or more of the following values:

TA_TOP
Specifies alignment of the x-axis and the top of the bounding rectangle.
TA_BASELINE
Specifies alignment of the x-axis and the baseline of the chosen font within the bounding rectangle.
TA_BOTTOM
Specifies alignment of the x-axis and the bottom of the bounding rectangle.
TA_LEFT
Specifies alignment of the y-axis and the left side of the bounding rectangle.
TA_RIGHT
Specifies alignment of the y-axis and the right side of the bounding rectangle.
TA_CENTER
Specifies alignment of the y-axis and the center of the bounding rectangle. Note that MiniGUI does not support TA_CENTER so far.
TA_NOUPDATECP
Specifies that the current position is not updated.
TA_UPDATECP
Specifies that the current position is updated.

Note: The text-alignment flags determine how the TextOut, TabbedTextOut, and TabbedTextOutEx functions align a string of text in relation to the string's starting point. The text-alignment flags are not necessarily single-bit flags and may be equal to 0. To test whether a flag is set, an application should follow these steps:

Apply the bitwise OR operator to the flag and its related flags, grouped as follows:
- TA_LEFT, TA_RIGHT, TA_CENTER (TA_X_MASK)
- TA_BASELINE, TA_BOTTOM, and TA_TOP (TA_Y_MASK)
- TA_NOUPDATECP and TA_UPDATECP (TA_CP_MASK)
Apply the bitwise-AND operator to the result and the return value of GetTextAlign.
Test for the equality of this result and the flag.

#define GetTextBellowLineExtra ( hdc ) GetDCAttr (hdc, DC_ATTR_BLINE_EXTRA)

Retrieves the current spacing bellow line for the DC.

Definition at line 6857 of file gdi.h.

#define GetTextCharacterExtra ( hdc ) GetDCAttr (hdc, DC_ATTR_CHAR_EXTRA)

Retrieves the current intercharacter spacing for the DC.

Definition at line 6841 of file gdi.h.

#define SetTextAboveLineExtra	(	hdc,
		extra
	)	SetDCAttr (hdc, DC_ATTR_ALINE_EXTRA, (DWORD) extra)

Sets the spacing above line for the DC and returns the old value.

See also: GetTextAboveLineExtra

Definition at line 6875 of file gdi.h.

#define SetTextAlign	(	hdc,
		ta_flags
	)	SetDCAttr (hdc, DC_ATTR_TEXT_ALIGN, (DWORD)ta_flags)

Sets text-alignment flags of a DC.

Parameters

hdc The device context.

ta_flags The flags specify the relationship between a point and a rectangle that bounds the text. The point can be either the current position or coordinates specified by a text-output function. The rectangle that bounds the text is defined by the adjacent character cells in the text string. The ta_flags parameter can be one or more flags from the following three categories. Choose only one flag from each category.

The first category affects text alignment in the x-direction:

TA_LEFT
Aligns the point with the left side of the bounding rectangle. This is the default setting.
TA_RIGHT
Aligns the point with the right side of the bounding rectangle.
TA_CENTER
Aligns the point with the horizontal center of the bounding rectangle. Note that MiniGUI does not support TA_CENTER so far.

The second category affects text alignment in the y-direction:

TA_BASELINE
Aligns the point with the base line of the chosen font.
TA_BOTTOM
Aligns the point with the bottom of the bounding rectangle.
TA_TOP
Aligns the point with the top of the bounding rectangle. This is the default setting.

The third category determines whether the current position is updated when text is written:

TA_NOUPDATECP
Does not update the current position after each call to a text-output function. This is the default setting.
TA_UPDATECP
Updates the current x-position after each call to a text-output function. The new position is at the right side of the bounding rectangle for the text. When this flag is set, the coordinates specified in calls to the TextOut function are ignored.

Returns: The previous text-alignment setting, if successful. The low-order word contains the horizontal setting and the high-order word contains the vertical setting; otherwise 0.

Note: The TextOut, TabbedTextOut, and TabbedTextOutEx functions use these flags when positioning a string of text on a DC. The flags specify the relationship between a specific point and a rectangle that bounds the text. The coordinates of this point are passed as parameters to the TextOut function. The rectangle that bounds the text is formed by the adjacent character cells in the text string.

#define SetTextBellowLineExtra	(	hdc,
		extra
	)	SetDCAttr (hdc, DC_ATTR_BLINE_EXTRA, (DWORD) extra)

Sets the spacing bellow line for the DC and returns the old value.

See also: GetTextBellowLineExtra

Definition at line 6884 of file gdi.h.

#define SetTextCharacterExtra	(	hdc,
		extra
	)	SetDCAttr (hdc, DC_ATTR_CHAR_EXTRA, (DWORD) extra)

Sets the intercharacter spacing for the DC and returns the old spacing value.

Definition at line 6866 of file gdi.h.

#define TabbedTextOut	(	hdc,
		x,
		y,
		text
	)	TabbedTextOutLen (hdc, x, y, text, -1)

Outputs formatted text.

Defined as a macro calling TabbedTextOutLen passing len as -1.

See also: TextOutLen

Definition at line 7142 of file gdi.h.

#define TextOut	(	hdc,
		x,
		y,

Typedef Documentation

typedef struct _DTFIRSTLINE DTFIRSTLINE

First line information of DrawTextEx2

Function Documentation

int GUIAPI DrawTextEx2	(	HDC	hdc,
		const char *	pText,
		int	nCount,
		RECT *	pRect,
		int	nIndent,
		UINT	nFormat,
		DTFIRSTLINE *	firstline
	)

Draws a formatted text in a rectangle.

This function draws formatted text (pText) in the specified rectangle (pRect). It formats the text according to the specified method (through nFormat, including expanding tabs, justifying characters, breaking lines, and so forth).

Parameters

hdc	The device context.
pText	The formatted text.
nCount	The length of the text. If it is less than 0, MiniGUI will treat it as a null-terminated string.
pRect	The output rectangle.
nIndent	The indent value of the first line.
nFormat	The methods used to format the text. MiniGUI support the following method to format text so far:

DT_TOP
Top-justifies text (single line only).
DT_LEFT
Aligns text to the left.
DT_CENTER
Centers text horizontally in the rectangle.
DT_RIGHT
Aligns text to the right.
DT_VCENTER
Centers text vertically (single line only).
DT_BOTTOM
Justify the text to the bottom of the rectangle. This value must be combined with DT_SINGLELINE.
DT_WORDBREAK
Break words. Lines are automatically broken between words if a word would extend past the edge of the rectangle specified by the the pRect parameter. A carriage return or linefeed also breaks the line.
DT_CHARBREAK
Break characters. Lines are automatically broken between characters if a character would extend past the edge of the rectangle specified by the the pRect parameter. A carriage return or linefeed also breaks the line. DT_CHARBREAK will override DT_WORDBREAK.
DT_SINGLELINE
Display text on the single line only. Carriage returns and linefeeds do not break the line.
DT_EXPANDTABS
Expands tab characters. The default number of character per tab is eight.
DT_TABSTOP
Set tab stops. Bits 15-8 (high-order byte of the low-order word) of the uForma parameter specify the number of characters for each tab. The default number of characters per tab is eight.
DT_NOCLIP
Draws without clipping. DrawText is somewhat faster when DT_NOCLIP is used.
DT_CALCRECT
Determines the width and the height of the rectangle. If there are multiple lines of text, DrawText uses the width of the rectangle pointed to by the lpRect parameter and extends the base of the rectangle to bound the last line of text. If there is only one line of text, DrawText modifies the right side of the rectangle so that it bounds the last character in the line. In either case, DrawText returns the height of the formatted text but does not draw the text.

Parameters

firstline If not null, DrawTextEx2 will only calculate the first line will be output in the rectangle, and return the number of the characters and the output width.

Returns: The output height of the formatted text.
