dxGuideNormalBorderGlyph Method

Returns a Smart Glyph containing the bitmap mask for the normal guide UI adorner borders.

#Declaration

Delphi
function dxGuideNormalBorderGlyph: TdxSmartGlyph;

#Returns

Type
TdxSmartGlyph

#Remarks

Call this global function to create a new Smart Glyph container populated with the bitmap mask for painting colored outlines of non-selected guides (a white opaque one pixel width frame on a completely transparent background, 44 by 22 pixels in size):

The bitmap masks returned by the dxGuideNormalBorderGlyph and dxGuideSelectedBorderGlyph functions are used by the default guide draw routines to display the outlines of normal and selected guides, respectively.

The dxGuideNormalBorderWidth global constant value must match the white opaque frame’s pixel width in the idle guide border mask. If the constant exceeds the frame’s width, adjacent guide outlines can overlap in the resulting application:
