Q128237
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 3.1
SYMPTOMS
The Polyline API will return a failure code if called on a DC that has a NULL clipping region selected. One situation in which this can occur is when Polyline is used to draw into a DC for a window that is completely obscured by another window.
RESOLUTION
Check to see if the clipping region is NULL before calling Polyline and testing its return value.
STATUS
This behavior is by design on Windows 3.1.
This behavior does not occur on Windows NT or on Windows 95.
