GpiQueryCharAngle (1.2)
Function Group  Overview                          Up Next Previous
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
#define INCL_GPIPRIMITIVES
 
BOOL GpiQueryCharAngle(hps, pgradlAngle)
HPS hps;                 /* presentation-space handle                     */
PGRADIENTL pgradlAngle;  /* address of structure for baseline-angle point */
 
The GpiQueryCharAngle function retrieves the current value of the
character-baseline angle. The character-baseline angle is set by the
GpiSetCharAngle function.
 
The GpiQueryCharAngle function cannot be used in an open segment when the
drawing mode is DM_RETAIN.
 
Parameter    Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
hps          Identifies the presentation space.
 
pgradlAngle  Points to the GRADIENTL structure that receives a point that
             specifies the end of a vector defining the baseline angle.
 
Return Value
 
The return value is GPI_OK if the function is successful or GPI_ERROR if an
error occurred.
 
Errors
 
Use the WinGetLastError function to retrieve the error value, which may be
one of the following:
 
     PMERR_INV_HPS
     PMERR_INV_IN_RETAIN_MODE
     PMERR_PS_BUSY
