This enumeration contains values that specify the desired data or view aspect of the object when drawing or getting data.
typedef enum tagDVASPECT { DVASPECT_CONTENT = 1, DVASPECT_THUMBNAIL = 2, DVASPECT_ICON = 4, DVASPECT_DOCPRINT = 8} DVASPECT;
Elements
- DVASPECT_CONTENT
Provides a representation of an object so it can be displayed as an embedded object inside of a container. This value is typically specified for compound document objects. The presentation can be provided for the screen or printer. - DVASPECT_THUMBNAIL
Provides a thumbnail representation of an object so it can be displayed in a browsing tool. The thumbnail is approximately a 120 by 120 pixel, 16-color (recommended) device-independent bitmap potentially wrapped in a metafile. - DVASPECT_ICON
Provides an iconic representation of an object. - DVASPECT_DOCPRINT
Provides a representation of the object on the screen as though it were printed to a printer using the Print command from the File menu. The described data may represent a sequence of pages.
Remarks
Values of this enumeration are used to define the dwAspect member of the FORMATETC structure. Only one DVASPECT value can be used to specify a single presentation aspect in a FORMATETC structure.
The FORMATETC structure is used in many OLE functions and interface methods that require information on data presentation.
The default value of MiscStatus is used if a subkey corresponding to the specified DVASPECT is not found. To set an OLE control, specify DVASPECT==1. This will cause the following to occur in the registry.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\ . . .\MiscStatus = 1
Requirements
OS Versions: Windows CE 2.0 and later.
