MGL_getPenPixmapPattern

Returns the currently active pixmap pattern index, and pattern data.

Declaration

int MGLAPI MGL_getPenPixmapPattern(
    int index,
    pixpattern_t *pat)

Prototype In

mgraph.h

Parameters

index

Index of the bitmap pattern slot to read from

pat

Place to store the pixmap pattern

 

Return Value

Currently active bitmap pattern index.

Description

This function returns a copy of the specified pixmap pattern used when rendering patterned primitives in the MGL_PIXMAP pen style. It also returns the currently active pixmap pattern index, since the MGL supports 8 patterns cached internally in the driver.

Note:    You can pass a value of NULL in the pat parameter, and the pattern data will not be copied. Ie: MGL_getPenPixmapPattern(0,NULL) returns just the currently active pixmap pattern index.
