Save Window contents to BMP

[Jeff Barnes]

Hi Everybody,

I need to save the contents of a window to a bmp file.

I tried oWnd:SaveToBmp( cFile ) but it also copies the boarder.

Is there any function to copy only what is inside the window?


Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff,

Class TWindow Method SaveToBmp() calls the function WndBitmap().

If you modify WndBitmap() to call GetDC() instead of GetWindowDC(), then it will just save the window contents, without the caption and borders.

We could modify Method SaveToBmp() adding a new parameter:

Method SaveToBmp( cBmpFile, lBorder ) where lBorder may be .T. by default

Thanks Antonio.

What is the correct procedure to recompile the WndPrint.c file so I can link it into my app?


Thanks,

Jeff,

First call tools\clp2harb.exe module.c modified.c

then

bcc32 -c -Ic:\harbour\include;c:\fwh\include -D__HARBOUR__ -D__FLAT__ modified.c

that will provide you a modified.obj

Ok, I'm almost there.

I have modified the wndprint.c file and most of the window border is gone.

There is still the Bottom and Right part of the window being copied.

Is there something I can change to remove these?

[Jeff Barnes]

OK ... I've got it.

I manipulated the value for rct.right and rct.bottom (basically subtracted until I found the perfect number)

All borders are now gone.


Thanks for your help,

Jeff
