<nTop>, <nLeft>, <nBottom>, and <nRight> define the portion of the screen to save. Allowable values are 0 through 255.
Returns
FT_SAVRGN() returns the saved screen region and its coordinates as a character string.
Description
FT_SAVRGN() is similar to Clipper's SAVESCREEN(), but it saves the screen coordinates as well as the display information. The saved area can be restored by passing the returned string to FT_RSTRGN().
Note that the strings returned from FT_SAVRGN() and Clipper's SAVESCREEN() are not interchangeable. A screen region saved with with FT_SAVRGN() must be restored using FT_RSTRGN().
FT_SAVRGN() calls Clipper's SAVESCREEN(). Refer to the Clipper documentation for more information regarding this function.
Examples
