PICTYPE

The PICTYPE enumeration values are used to describe the type of a picture object as returned by IPicture::get_Type, as well as to describe the type of picture in the picType field of the PICTDESC structure that is passed to OleCreatePictureIndirect.

typedef enum tagPICTYPE 
{ 
    PICTYPE_UNINITIALIZED    = -1, 
    PICTYPE_NONE             = 0, 
    PICTYPE_BITMAP           = 1, 
    PICTYPE_METAFILE         = 2, 
    PICTYPE_ICON             = 3 
    PICTYPE_ENHMETAFILE      = 4 
} PICTYPE;

Elements

PICTYPE_UNINITIALIZED: The picture object is currently uninitialized. This value is only valid as a return value from IPicture::get_Type and is not valid with the PICTDESC structure.
PICTYPE_NONE: A new picture object is to be created without an initialized state. This value is valid only in the PICTDESC structure.
PICTYPE_BITMAP: The picture type is a bitmap. When this value occurs in the PICTDESC structure, it means that the bmp field of that structure contains the relevant initialization parameters.
PICTYPE_METAFILE: The picture type is a metafile. When this value occurs in the PICTDESC structure, it means that the wmf field of that structure contains the relevant initialization parameters.
PICTYPE_ICON: The picture type is an icon. When this value occurs in the PICTDESC structure, it means that the icon field of that structure contains the relevant initialization parameters.
PICTYPE_ENHMETAFILE: The picture type is a Win32-enhanced metafile. When this value occurs in the PICTDESC structure, it means that the emf field of that structure contains the relevant initialization parameters.
