L_INT LAutomation::Create(nMode, dwFlags=0);

AUTOMATIONMODE nMode;

automation mode

L_UINT32 dwFlags;

reserved

Creates an automation handle.

Parameter Description
nMode An integer value that represents the automation mode to use when creating the automation handle. Possible values are:
  Value Meaning
  AUTOMATION_MODE_PAINT Creates an automation handle for digital paint.
  AUTOMATION_MODE_VECTOR Creates an automation handle for Vectors.
dwFlags Reserved for future use. Use 0.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

LAutomation::Initialize must be called before calling this function.

If vector viewing support is unlocked using L_SUPPORT_VECTOR_VIEW, this function will return ERROR_VECTOR_LOCKED, if nMode is set to AUTOMATION_MODE_VECTOR.
