MoveLayer

Move layer to new position in BitMap.

Declaration

Source position: layers.pas line 160

Arguments

Function result

True if operation successful. False if failed (out of memory)

Description

Move this layer to new position in shared BitMap. If any refresh layers become revealed, collect damage and set REFRESH bit in layer Flags.

Errors

May not handle (dx,dy) which attempts to move the layer outside the layer's RastPort^.BitMap bounds .

Example

program LayersTest;
{ For the sake of brevity, the example is a single task.  No Layer
  locking is done.  Also note that the routine MyLabelLayer() is used
  to redraw a given layer.  It is called only when a layer needs
  refreshing.

{ Set up a low-level graphics display for layers to work on.  Layers
 should not be built directly on Intuition screens, use a low-level
 graphics view. If you need mouse or other events for the layers
 display, you have to get them directly from the input device. The
 only supported method of using layers library calls with Intuition
 (other than the InstallClipRegion() call) is through Intuition windows.

 See graphics primitives chapter for details on creating and using the
 low-level graphics calls.}
