Description

FUNCTION GetDropShadowData(
              h                 :HANDLE;
              VAR nUnits        :INTEGER;
              VAR dOffset       :REAL;
              VAR dBlurRadius   :REAL;
              VAR dAngle        :REAL;
              VAR nOpacity      :INTEGER;
              VAR colorRV       :INTEGER;
              VAR colorGV       :INTEGER;
              VAR colorBV       :INTEGER) : BOOLEAN;

def vs.GetDropShadowData(h):
    return (BOOLEAN, nUnits, dOffset, dBlurRadius, dAngle, nOpacity, colorRV, colorGV, colorBV)

Parameters

h		HANDLE
nUnits		INTEGER
dOffset		REAL
dBlurRadius		REAL
dAngle		REAL
nOpacity		INTEGER
colorRV		INTEGER
colorGV		INTEGER
colorBV		INTEGER

Remarks

Ptr [2021.03.02]:

nUnits returns 0 for page units and 1 for world units.

Disregarding the document unit settings, if nUnits = 0, dOffset and dBlurRadius are in inch, if nUnits = 1, dOffset and dBlurRadius are in mm.

Ptr [2021.02.22]: The RGB values out of this call return pretty strange values ranging from -32640 to 32639. To get them converted to RGB255 values, use:

if colorRV > 0:
	colorR = colorRV / 257
else:
	colorR = (colorRV + 65536) / 257
