An application can retrieve this bounding rectangle by calling GetBoundsRect, and it can set this rectangle by calling SetBoundsRect. But this rectangle may not be the smallest bounding rectangle if your drawing functions contain functions doing text output such as TextOut. GDI does not calculate ahead of time how far across the TextOut functions are going to draw. GDI just sets the right side of the bounding rectangle to a large number. " Krugle found a few possible calls to it, e.g. in bzflag and Neuroshare http://www.krugle.org/kse/files?query=GetBoundsRect and a whole lot of false positives. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
