AcquireFrameShape

Inside Macintosh: OpenDoc Class Reference /: Part 1 - Classes and Methods / ODFrame

AcquireFrameShape
The AcquireFrameShape method returns a reference to the frame shape of this frame.
ODShape AcquireFrameShape (in ODCanvas biasCanvas);
biasCanvas
kODNULL if the geometry is in platform-normal coordinates, otherwise a reference to the canvas object to whose coordinate space the geometry is biased.
return value
A reference to the frame shape, expressed in frame coordinates.

DISCUSSION
The caller must not modify the frame shape; only this frame's containing part can modify the frame shape.
This method increments the reference count of the returned shape object. When you have finished using that shape object, you should call its Release method.
