int iGroupId,
LPRECT lpRect,
int iCoords = LVGGR_GROUP
) const;
Parameters
Parameter |
Description |
|---|---|
[in] iGroupId |

Remarks
The caller is responsible for allocating the RECT structure pointed to by the pRect parameter.
This method sends the LVM_GETGROUPRECT message, which is described in the Windows SDK.

Header: afxcmn.h
This control is supported in Windows Vista and later.
Additional requirements for this method are described in Build Requirements for Windows Vista Common Controls.
Example
The following code example defines a variable, m_listCtrl, that is used to access the current list-view control. This variable is used in the next example.
public:
// Variable used to access the list control.
CListCtrl m_listCtrl;
The following code example demonstrates the GetGroupRect method. In an earlier section of this code example, we created a list-view control that displays two columns titled "ClientID" and "Grade" in a report view. The following code example draws a 3D rectangle around the group whose index is 0, if such a group exists.
// GetGroupRect
// Get the graphics rectangle that surrounds group 0.
CRect rect;
BOOL bRet = m_listCtrl.GetGroupRect( 0, &rect, LVGGR_GROUP);
// Draw a blue rectangle around group 0.
if (bRet == TRUE) {
m_listCtrl.GetDC()->Draw3dRect( &rect, RGB(0, 0, 255), RGB(0, 0, 255));
}
else {
AfxMessageBox(_T("No group information was retrieved."), MB_ICONINFORMATION);
