LOGPEN structure (wingdi.h)
The LOGPEN structure defines the style, width, and color of a pen. The CreatePenIndirect function uses the LOGPEN structure.
Syntax
typedef struct tagLOGPEN {
UINT lopnStyle;
POINT lopnWidth;
COLORREF lopnColor;
} LOGPEN, *PLOGPEN, *NPLOGPEN, *LPLOGPEN;
Members
lopnStyle
The pen style, which can be one of the following values.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| PS_SOLID | The pen is solid. |
| PS_DASH | The pen is dashed. |
| PS_DOT | The pen is dotted. |
| PS_DASHDOT | The pen has alternating dashes and dots. |
| PS_DASHDOTDOT | The pen has dashes and double dots. |
| PS_NULL | The pen is invisible. |
| PS_INSIDEFRAME | The pen is solid. When this pen is used in any GDI drawing function that takes a bounding rectangle, the dimensions of the figure are shrunk so that it fits entirely in the bounding rectangle, taking into account the width of the pen. This applies only to geometric pens. |
lopnWidth
The POINT structure that contains the pen width, in logical units. If the x member is NULL, then the pen is one pixel wide on raster devices. The y member in the POINT structure for lopnWidth isn't used.
lopnColor
The pen color. To generate a COLORREF structure, use the RGB macro.
Remarks
If the width of the pen is greater than 1 and the pen style is PS_INSIDEFRAME, the line is drawn inside the frame of all GDI objects except polygons and polylines. If the pen color does not match an available RGB value, the pen is drawn with a logical (dithered) color. If the pen width is less than or equal to 1, the PS_INSIDEFRAME style is identical to the PS_SOLID style.
