Applies to
Bitmap, checkbmp, pushbmp, and radiobmp controls.
Description
For clipped bitmaps, this property specifies the location within the control (not the image) to treat as the origin.
Usage
origin = Get_Property (windowID, "IMAGEORIGIN")
oldorigin = Set_Property (windowID, "IMAGEORIGIN", neworigin)
Remarks
Values passed in Set_Property and returned by both Get_Property and Set_Property have the format x:@fm:y where x and y are defined as:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| X | Number of pixels from the left edge of the control to start drawing. |
| Y | Number of pixels from the top edge of the control to start drawing. |
Setting the x value to -1 centers the bitmap image horizontally within the bitmap control. Likewise, setting the y value to -1 centers the bitmap vertically.
Although the list box control can display bitmaps, the IMAGEORIGIN property does not apply to list boxes. List boxes always use an IMAGEORIGIN of 2,2.
