SetWindowRgn
The SetWindowRgn function sets the window region of a window. The window region determines the area within the window where the system permits drawing. The system does not display any portion of a window that lies outside of the window region
int SetWindowRgn(
HWND hWnd, // handle to window
HRGN hRgn, // handle to region
BOOL bRedraw // window redraw option
);
Parameters
hWnd
[in] Handle to the window whose window region is to be set.
hRgn
[in] Handle to a region. The function sets the window region of the window to this region.
If hRgn is NULL, the function sets the window region to NULL.
bRedraw
[in] Specifies whether the system redraws the window after setting the window region. If bRedraw is TRUE, the system does so; otherwise, it does not.
Typically, you set bRedraw to TRUE if the window is visible.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero.
