GetDiskFontCtrl -- Inquire diskfont global settings. (V45)
value = GetDiskFontCtrl( tagid );
D0
LONG GetDiskFontCtrl( LONG tagitem );
GetDiskFontCtrl reads global settings of the diskfont
library, as the setting of the base DPI X and Y values,
the cache enable flag and the AvailFonts sorting values.
The TagItem passed in identifies the type of data item
to read.
tagid - a tag ID as documented in diskfont/diskfonttag.h
that identifies the kind of data item to inquiry.
The following tag values are currently supported:
(see diskfont/diskfonttag.h)
Font generator DPI settings:
DFCTRL_XDPI
DFCTRL_YDPI X and Y dpi device resolution
DFCTRL_XDOTP
DFCTRL_YDOTP X and Y dpi dot sizes.
DFCTRL_SYMSET default symbol set (unused)
DFCTRL_CACHE AvailFonts cache enable (BOOL)
DFCTRL_SORTMODE AvailFonts font sorting (LONG)
currently defined sort orders are:
DFCTRL_SORT_OFF don't sort
DFCTRL_SORT_ASC localized ascending
DFCTRL_SORT_DES localized descending
value - The current diskfont default setting for the
selected tag item.
The result code is undocumented if an unknown
tag value is passed in.
BOOL cache;
cache = GetDiskFontCtrl(DFCTRL_CACHE);
/* read the current cache enable flag. */
This call is not semaphore protected. This means that
several calls to this function and SetDiskFontCtrl()
might cause inconsistent results. The function will not
fail or crash, but the result might be near to useless
in a multitasking system.
This function should never be called by the average
user. Its sole purpose is to provide the font
preferences editor with data about the current diskfont
settings. It should not be called for other purposes.
