SlideView_EndImage Method

Description

This method is used to store what has been drawn or painted to the SlideView's paintable area to memory. What this does is make all lines, arcs, text, etc. become part of the stored picture that the SlideView uses to paint from. This method must be called after all objects have been drawn to the SlideView, or possible visual errors could occur, especially if another dialog box is moved over the SlideView and what has been drawn will be erased

Parameters

MyControlReference: Reference to the control in the form of MyProject_MyForm_MyControl.
ProjectFile: String identifying the project as it was passed in LoadProject.
DialogName: String identifying the dialog by name.
ControlName: String identifying the control by name.

Return Values

Returns the following according to the situation:

T when successful.
Nil if the control is not found or is not visible.

AutoLISP Syntax
