Remarks

Creates a plug-in-controlled window containing a view of an image file. The window should be created as a child window and should be initially non-visible (WS_VISIBLE flag unset). The child window should not use any borders, (i.e. do not use window styles, such as WS_BORDER or WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE).

Once created, the plug-in host application can perform the following operations on the window:

• Change window size and position
• Send ID_VWM messages to the window
• Destroy the window

The FIF_VIEWINDOW flag must be included in ID_FormatInfo for those image formats where a View Window is supported by the plug-in.

Requirements

Header: ID_PlugIn.h
