View-Related Functions Applicable to Bitmap Shapes
As described in "Bitmaps and View Devices" beginning on page 5-12, view device objects use bitmaps to store rendered shape images. Table 5-6 lists the function that allows you to determine the bitmap assigned to a view device and the function that allows you to change the bitmap of a view device. Both of these functions are described in detail in the chapter "View-Related Objects" in Inside Macintosh: QuickDraw GX Objects.
