LAnnotation::AdjustPoint

#include "ltwrappr.h"

static L_INT LAnnotation::AdjustPoint (pptAnchor, pptMove, dAngle, nType)

pANNPOINT pptAnchor;

/* pointer to an ANNPOINT structure that contains the anchor point */

pANNPOINT pptMove;

/* pointer to an ANNPOINT structure that contains the point to be adjusted */

L_DOUBLE dAngle;

/* angle of rotation */

L_INT nType;

/* type of adjustment to point */

Modifies the point pptMove based on the angle from line (pptAnchor, pptMove) and the horizontal. This function is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

Parameter

Description

pptAnchor

Pointer to an ANNPOINT structure representing the anchor point.

pptMove

Pointer to an ANNPOINT structure representing the point to be adjusted.

dAngle

Angle of rotation in radians. Ranges from -Pi to Pi, (-3.1415… - 3.1415…) where a positive angle corresponds to clockwise rotation.

nType

Type of adjustment to point. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

ANNADJUST_HORIZONTAL

[1]

 

ANNADJUST_VERTICAL

[2]

 

ANNADJUST_45_DEGREES_FAVOR_X

[3]

 

ANNADJUST_45_DEGREES_FAVOR_Y

[4]

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This utility function is used when creating custom annotation objects. It can be used to calculate the horizontal, vertical, or 45 degree component of a rotated annotation object. It can also be used to easily restrict the mouse cursor on rotated annotation objects.

As an example, consider a rectangle that is rotated 35 degrees in the clockwise direction.

The user has clicked on the Anchor point, and moved the mouse to the Move point.

To find the horizontal component of the line that goes from (Anchor, Move), make the following call, and the ptMove point is adjusted to contain only the horizontal component.

The adjusted ptMove can be seen in step 4.

LAnnotation::AdjustPoint(&ptAnchor, &ptMove, 35*PI/180, ANNADJUST_HORIZONTAL)

Conceptually, the following occurs:

1.

Initial situation

2.

Points and rectangle are rotated 35 degrees counter clockwise

3.

Move point is adjusted to contain only the horizontal component

4.

Points and rectangle are rotated 35 degrees clockwise to give adjusted Move point.
