API Reference Guide > Vector Component API Reference > Vector Component Functions Reference > Drawing Functions > IG_vect_drwng_get_hatchfilltypeindex

This function returns the index of a vector hatch fill type in the internal drawing container.

Declaration:

 
Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_vect_drwng_get_hatchfilltypeindex(
   HIG_VECT_DRWNG hDrwng,
   char* lpHatchName,
   long* lpIndex
);

Arguments:

Name Type Description
hDrwng HIG_VECT_DRWNG Handle to the drawing.
lpHatchName char* Name of the hatch fill type.
lpIndex long* Pointer to a variable that will receive the index of the hatch fill type.

Return Value:

Returns 0 if successful. Otherwise, returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during this function call.

Supported Raster Image Formats:

This function does not process image pixels.

Sample:

None

Remarks:

Hatch fill type uses line segments for filling.

Use IG_vect_drwng_get_filltype function to get the HIG_VECT_FILLTYPE object corresponding to the index.

Use IG_vect_filltype_get_vecthatch function to get the HIG_VECT_VECTORHATCH object and Hatch Functions to access to its properties.

This function does not work with predefined hatch fill types, such as IG_VECT_FP_HATCH_CROSS. Use IG_vect_drwng_get_filltypeindex to get the index of a predefined hatch fill type in the drawing.
