L_DicomGetOverlayBitmapList

#include "ltdic.h"

L_LTDIC_API L_UINT16 L_DicomGetOverlayBitmapList(hDS, uOverlayIndex, hList, uOverlayFrameIndex, uCount, uFlags)

Loads the bitmap list with frames from the "Overlay Data" (60xx, 3000) element.

Parameters

HDICOMDS hDS

A DICOM handle.

L_UINT uOverlayIndex

The index of the overlay for which to get the frames. This index is zero-based.

HBITMAPLIST hList

Handle to the list of bitmaps.

L_UINT32 uOverlayFrameIndex

Position of the first frame to load. Use zero-based indexing. For example, if there are 5 bitmaps in a list, the index of the last one is 4.

L_UINT32 uCount

Number of frames to load into the bitmap list.

L_UINT uFlags

Reserved for future use. Pass 0.

Returns

Value	Meaning
DICOM_SUCCESS	The function was successful.
>0	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Before calling this function you must call L_DicomGetOverlayAttributes. The nNumFramesInOverlay member of the OVERLAYATTRIBUTES structure will be filled with the number of frames under an overlay.

As an example, if you wish to load 5 frames starting with the 1st frame in the "Overlay Data", call this function with uOverlayFrameIndex set to 0 and uCount set to 5.
