LAnnotation::GetArea

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LAnnotation::GetArea(puCount)

/* address of a variable to be updated */

Gets the pixel count of the specified annotation object. This function is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

Parameter	Description
puCount	Address of the variable to be updated with the pixel count.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

The pixel count is the number of pixels contained in a region extracted from the annotation object, without resizing. It is equivalent to calling LAnnotation::GetRgnHandle with pRgnXForm set to NULL and then getting a pixel count of the resulting region.
