CDC::SetTextColor

Syntax

DWORD SetTextColor( DWORD crColor );

Parameters

crColor

Specifies the color of the text as an RGB color value.

Remarks

Sets the text color to the specified color. The system will use this text color when writing text to this device context and also when converting bitmaps between color and monochrome device contexts.

If the device cannot represent the specified color, the system sets the text color to the nearest physical color. The background color for a character is specified by SetBkColor and SetBkMode.

Return Value

An RGB value for the previous text color.
