Browse All TopicsDoes anyone know the meaning of bit 0x40 (decimal 64) in LOGFONT's lfClipPrecision field ?
The bit is seen to be on from one application running on Windows 98 traditional Chinese version, and GDI seems to response to this bit.
But I've searched through all I've got, including Far East DDK/SDK, and can't find this flag.
Note 0x10, 0x20, 0x80 are documented, but 0x40 is NOT documented.

Hi FengYuan,
---------- ---------- ---------- - ---------- ---------- ---------- -
did you see MSDN article 'Q171153 - HOWTO: Display Graphic Chars on Chinese & Korean Windows'?
--------------------------
To display the extended ANSI character correctly on Chinese and Korean Windows 95 or Windows NT, the Font Association of the system should be turned off. By default, Font Association is always on. To turn off the Font Association in your application, use CreateFontIndirect() with lfClipPrecision in LogFont set as 0x40. This doesn't have any effect on non- Font Association system.
--------------------------
that's all I found about that...
hope that helps,
ZOPPO
