Function Reference


_WinAPI_SetWorldTransform

Sets a two-dimensional linear transformation between world space and page space for the specified device context

#include <WinAPIGdi.au3>
_WinAPI_SetWorldTransform ( $hDC, $tXFORM )

Parameters

$hDC Handle to the device context.
$tXFORM $tagXFORM structure that contains the transformation data.

Return Value

Success: True
Failure: False

Remarks

The _WinAPI_SetWorldTransform() will fail unless the graphics mode for the given device context has been set
to $GM_ADVANCED by previously calling the _WinAPI_SetGraphicsMode(). Likewise, it will not be possible to reset
the graphics mode for the device context to the default $GM_COMPATIBLE mode, unless the world transformation
has first been reset to the default identity transformation by calling _WinAPI_SetWorldTransform().

For any coordinates (x, y) in world space, the transformed coordinates in page space (x', y') can be
determined by the following algorithm:
    x' = x * eM11 + y * eM21 + eDx
    y' = x * eM12 + y * eM22 + eDy
