GDI Structures
The following table shows the GDI structures with a description of the purpose of each.
| Programming element | PPC | SP | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| BITMAP | X | X | This structure defines the type, width, height, color format, and bit values of a bitmap. |
| BITMAPCOREHEADER | X | X | This structure contains information about the dimensions and color format of a device-independent bitmap (DIB). |
| BITMAPCOREINFO | X | X | This structure defines the dimensions and color information for a device independent bitmap (DIB). |
| BITMAPFILEHEADER | X | X | This structure contains information about the type, size, and layout of a file that containing a device-independent bitmap (DIB). |
| BITMAPINFO | X | X | This structure defines the dimensions and color information of a Windows-based device-independent bitmap (DIB). |
| BITMAPINFOHEADER | X | X | This structure contains information about the dimensions and color format of a device-independent bitmap (DIB). |
| COLORREF | X | X | This value is a 32-bit value used to specify an RGB color. |
| DEVMODE | X | X | This structure contains information about a printer environment and device initialization. |
| DIBSECTION | X | X | This structure contains information about a device-independent bitmap (DIB). |
| DISPLAY_DEVICE | X | X | This structure receives information about the display device specified by the iDevNum parameter of the EnumDisplayDevices function. |
| OUTLINETEXTMETRICW | X | X | This structure contains metrics describing a TrueType font. |
| GRADIENT_RECT | X | X | This structure specifies the index of two vertices in the pVertex array in the GradientFill function. |
| LOGBRUSH | X | X | This structure defines the style, color, and pattern of a logical brush. |
| LOGPALETTE | X | X | This structure defines a logical color palette. |
| LOGPEN | X | X | This structure defines the style, width, and color of a pen. |
| PAINTSTRUCT | X | X | This structure contains information that an application uses to paint the client area of a window owned by that application. |
| PALETTEENTRY | X | X | This structure specifies the color and usage of a logical palette entry. |
| PALETTERGB | X | X | This macro accepts three values that represent the relative intensities of red, green, and blue and returns a palette-relative RGB specifier consisting of 2 in the high-order byte and an RGB value in the three low-order bytes (with a value representing the intensity of red, green, or blue in each of the bytes). |
| POINT | X | X | This structure defines the x- and y-coordinates of a point. |
| POINTS | X | X | This structure defines the coordinates of a point. |
| RECT | X | X | This structure defines the coordinates of the upper-left and lower-right corners of a rectangle. |
| RECTL | X | X | This structure defines the coordinates of the upper-left and lower-right corners of a rectangle. |
| RGBQUAD | X | X | This structure describes a color consisting of relative intensities of red, green, and blue. |
| RGBTRIPLE | X | X | This structure describes a color consisting of relative intensities of red, green, and blue. |
| RGNDATA | X | X | This structure contains a header and an array of rectangles that make up a region. |
| RGNDATAHEADER | X | X | This structure describes the data returned by the GetRegionData function. |
| SIZE | X | X | This structure specifies the width and height of a rectangle. |
| TRIVERTEX | X | X | This structure defines the screen position, color, and alpha information for a point. |
| VIDEOPARAMETERS | X | X | This structure contains information for a video connection. |
