NAME
InstallClipRegion -- Install clip region in layer
SYNOPSIS
oldclipregion = InstallClipRegion( l, region )
d0 a0 a1
struct Region *InstallClipRegion( struct Layer *, struct Region *);
FUNCTION
Installs a transparent Clip region in the layer. All
subsequent graphics calls will be clipped to this region.
You MUST remember to call InstallClipRegion(l,NULL) before
calling DeleteLayer(l) or the Intuition function CloseWindow()
if you have installed a non-NULL ClipRegion in l.
INPUTS
l - pointer to a layer
region - pointer to a region
RESULTS
oldclipregion - The pointer to the previous ClipRegion that
was installed. Returns NULL if no previous ClipRegion installed.
Note: If the system runs out of memory while computing the
resulting ClipRects the LAYERS_CLIPRECTS_LOST bit will
be set in l->Flags.
BUGS
If the system runs out of memory during normal layer operations,
the ClipRect list may get swept away and not restored.
As soon as there is enough memory and the layer library
gets called again the ClipRect list will be rebuilt.
