How can I access the &nbsp;device context that allows you &nbsp;to draw on the entire document area, and not just the viewableportion of it. CScrollView::OnDraw provides you with a pDC that represents the entire document area, and not just the viewable portion of it. That is what I need, but I need this from within a CScrollView command handler function. Can I access a device context such as this from within a &nbsp;command handler function? Basically, right now I am coding my command handler, and the next step is for me to output an array of points to the device context that represents the &nbsp;entire document area, and not just the viewable portion of it.

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.
