Function name: CopyImage

Defined in : user32

Requirements : Windows NT 3.1 or later; Windows 95 or later

Declaration:

Declare Function CopyImage Lib "user32" (ByVal handle As Long, ByVal imageType As Long, ByVal newWidth As Long, ByVal newHeight As Long, ByVal lFlags As Long) As Long

Parameters:

* hinst Identifies an instance of the module that contains the image to be copied. * uType Specifies the type of image to be copied. This parameter can be one of the following values: IMAGE_BITMAP Copies a bitmap. IMAGE_CURSOR Copies a cursor. IMAGE_ICON Copies an icon. * cxDesired Specifies the desired width, in pixels, of the image. * cyDesired Specifies the desired height, in pixels, of the image. * fuFlags Specifies a combination of the following values: LR_COPYDELETEORG Deletes the original image after creating the copy. LR_COPYRETURNORG Creates an exact copy of the image, ignoring the cxDesired and cyDesired parameters. LR_MONOCHROME Creates a new monochrome image. LR_COPYFROMRESOURCE Tries to reload an icon or cursor resource from the original resource file rather than simply copying the current image. This is useful for creating a different-sized copy when the resource file contains multiple sizes of the resource. Without this flag, CopyImage stretches the original image to the new size. If this flag is set, CopyImage uses the size in the resource file closest to the desired size. This will succeed only if hImage was loaded by LoadIcon or LoadCursor, or by LoadImage with the LR_SHARED flag.

Returns:

If the function succeeds, the return value is the handle to the newly created image. If the function fails, the return value is NULL. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
