BOOL GpiQueryCharShear(hps, pptlShear)
HPS hps;              /* presentation-space handle                   */
PPOINTL pptlShear;    /* address of structure for shear-vector point */
 
The GpiQueryCharShear function retrieves the value of the current
character-shear angle. This function cannot be used in an open segment when
the drawing mode is DM_RETAIN.
 
Parameter  Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
hps        Identifies the presentation space.
 
pptlShear  Points to the POINTL structure that receives the point defining
           the character-shear vector.
 
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
