L_LTPNT_API L_INT L_PntGetProperty(pPaint, nGroup, pProperty)

pPAINTHANDLE pPaint;	pointer to a paint handle
PAINTGROUP nGroup;	type of paint properties
const L_VOID * pProperty;	pointer to a PAINTXXXX structure

Gets the specified paint properties.

Parameter	Description
pPaint	Pointer to a paint handle.
nGroup	Indicates the paint properties to get and the structure pointed to by pProperty. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	PAINT_GROUP_BRUSH	Get the Paintbrush properties. pProperty points to a PAINTBRUSH structure.
	PAINT_GROUP_SHAPE	Get the Paint shape properties. pProperty points to a PAINTSHAPE structure.
	PAINT_GROUP_REGION	Get the Paint region properties. pProperty points to a PAINTREGION structure.
	PAINT_GROUP_FILL	Get the Paint fill properties. pProperty points to a PAINTFILL structure.
	PAINT_GROUP_TEXT	Get the Paint fill properties. pProperty points to a PAINTTEXT structure.
pProperty	Pointer to a PAINTXXX structure to be updated with the specified property values. The type of structure that this parameter points to is indicated by the nGroup parameter.

Returns

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