AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_clipboard_paste_merge_ex( HIGEAR hIGear, AT_PIXPOS nLeftPos, AT_PIXPOS nTopPos ); |
Arguments:
Name | Type | Description |
hIGear | HIGEAR | Set to the HIGEAR handle of the image in which to merge the clipboard contents. |
nLeftPos | AT_PIXPOS | X position in HIGEAR image at which to place the upper left corner of the clipboard image when merging. |
nTopPos | AT_PIXPOS | Y position in HIGEAR image at which to place the upper left corner of the clipboard image when merging. |
Return Value:
Returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during this function call. If there are no errors, the return value is IGE_SUCCESS.
Supported Raster Image Formats:
Indexed RGB – 1, 4, 8 bpp;

AT_ERRCOUNT nErrcount; HIGEAR hIGear; BOOL bNRpasteAvail; AT_PIXPOS xpos, ypos; AT_MODE nRegionType; nErrcount = IG_clipboard_paste_available_ex(&bNRpasteAvail, &nRegionType); nErrcount = IG_clipboard_paste_merge_ex(hIGear, xpos, ypos); |
Remarks:
To check if there is a paste-able image on the clipboard, call IG_clipboard_paste_available_ex().
nLeftPos and nTopPos set the (x,y) coordinates of the upper-left corner of the bounding rectangle of the original image. See image below. The image has an (x,y) location within it at which the upper left-corner of the bounding rectangle will be placed. The white circle enclosed within a gray rectangle represents the non-rectangular ROI image stored in the clipboard, where the shaded area represents the transparent area between the bounding rectangle and the non-rectangular ROI. When the clipboard image is merged, only the circle will appear on the image.
Use IG_clipboard_paste_op_set() to tell ImageGear what kind of merge operation to perform. |
This function will automatically call IG_clipboard_paste_available_ex() to confirm that there is data available. Therefore, it is not mandatory to call IG_clipboard_paste_available_ex() before making this call, unless you are interested in knowing the type of region contained in the clipboard. |
