Using the Owner-Display Clipboard Format

If a window places information on the clipboard by using the CF_OWNERDISPLAY clipboard format, it must do the following:

• Process the WM_PAINTCLIPBOARD message. This message is sent to the clipboard owner when a portion of the clipboard viewer window must be repainted.
• Process the WM_SIZECLIPBOARD message. This message is sent to the clipboard owner when the clipboard viewer window has been resized or its content has changed.

  Typically, a window responds to this message by setting the scroll positions and ranges for the clipboard viewer window. In response to this message, the Label application also updates a SIZE structure for the clipboard viewer window.

• Process the WM_HSCROLLCLIPBOARD and WM_VSCROLLCLIPBOARD messages. These messages are sent to the clipboard owner when a scroll bar event occurs in the clipboard viewer window.
• Process the WM_ASKCBFORMATNAME message. The clipboard viewer window sends this message to an application to retrieve the name of the owner-display format.

The window procedure for the Label application processes these messages, as follows.

LRESULT CALLBACK MainWindowProc(hwnd, msg, wParam, lParam) 
HWND hwnd; 
UINT msg; 
WPARAM wParam; 
LPARAM lParam;

    static RECT rcViewer;

        //

        case WM_PAINTCLIPBOARD: 
            // Determine the dimensions of the label. 
 
            SetRect(&rc, 0, 0, 
                pboxLocalClip->rcText.right + CX_MARGIN,

            ); 
 
            // Center the image in the clipboard viewer window. 
 
            if (rc.right < rcViewer.right) 
            { 
                rc.left = (rcViewer.right - rc.right) / 2; 
                rc.right += rc.left; 
            }

                rc.bottom += rc.top; 
            }

            // structure, by calling the application-defined

            // the need to process the WM_HSCROLLCLIPBOARD and 
            // WM_VSCROLLCLIPBOARD messages).
