Macro
Summary

Creates a metafile in memory using Graphics Ports operations.

Package

capi

Signature

with-internal-metafile ( var &key pane bounds
format ) &body body => metafile

Description

The macro with-internal-metafile creates a metafile containing records corresponding to the Graphics Ports operations in body that draw to var .

This is implemented only in LispWorks for Windows. The metafile is a device-independent format for storing pictures. For more information about metafiles, see the Microsoft documentation.

with-internal-metafile behaves like with-external-metafile except that an object representing the metafile is returned, and no file is created on disk.
