Gets the text selection flags.
Syntax
HRESULT GetFlags(
long *pFlags
);
Parameters
pFlags
Type: long*
Any combination of the following selection flags.
| Selection Flag | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| tomSelStartActive | 1 | Start end is active. |
| tomSelAtEOL | 2 | For degenerate selections, the ambiguous character position corresponding to both the beginning of a line and the end of the preceding line should have the caret displayed at the end of the preceding line. |
| tomSelOvertype | 4 | Insert/Overtype mode is set to overtype. |
| tomSelActive | 8 | Selection is active. |
| tomSelReplace | 16 | Typing and pasting replaces selection. |
Each of the table values is binary. Thus, if any value is not set, the text selection has the opposite property.
Return value
Type: HRESULT
The method returns an HRESULT value. If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If pFlags is null, the method fails and it returns E_INVALIDARG.
