_getimage Functions
◄Summary► ◄Example► ◄Up► ◄Contents► ◄Index► ◄Back►
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The _getimage functions store the screen image defined by a
specified bounding rectangle into the buffer pointed to by
<image>.
The _getimage function defines the bounding rectangle with the
view-coordinate points (<x1>, <y1>) and (<x2>, <y2>).
The _getimage_w routine (implemented as a macro) defines the
bounding rectangle with the window-coordinate points (<wx1>,
<wy1>) and (<wx2>, <wy2>).
The _getimage_wxy routine (implemented as a macro) defines the
bounding rectangle with the window-coordinate pairs (<pwxy1>,
<pwxy2>).
The buffer must be large enough to hold the image. You can
determine the size by calling the appropriate _imagesize function
at run time, or by using the formula described for the _imagesize
function.
Return Value
None. Use _grstatus to check success.
