Example:

 
Copy Code
HIGEAR hIGear; /* HIGEAR handle of image */
AT_ERRCOUNT nErrcount; /* tally of IG errors on stack */
DWORD dwMarkCount; /* number of marks selected */
HGLOBAL hGlobal; /* Windows handle to  */
/* memory area  */
ART_MARK_INDEX lpMarkIndex; /* index to mark(s) */
HWND hWnd;  /* Windows handle to  */
/* image window  */
case ID_EDIT_CUT:
nErrcount = ART_mark_select_count(hIGear,
   &dwMarkCount);
hGlobal = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_MOVEABLE, dwMarkCount *
sizeof(ART_MARK_INDEX));
lpMarkIndex = (LPART_MARK_INDEX)GlobalLock(hGlobal);
nErrcount = 
ART_mark_selected_first(hIGear,lpMarkIndex);
for (i = 1; i < (INT)dwMarkCount; i++)
{
lpMarkIndex[i] = lpMarkIndex[i - 1];
nErrcount = ART_mark_selected_next(hIGear,
lpMarkIndex + i);
}
nErrcount = ART_edit_cut(hIGear, lpMarkIndex, 
dwMarkCount);
nErrcount = ART_GUI_mark_paint(hIGear, IG_GRP_DEFAULT, 
ART_INVALID_ID, hWnd, TRUE);
GlobalUnlock(hGlobal);
GlobalFree(hGlobal);
break;
