Box.MnpHandlesMask Property

Gets or sets what modifications can be applied to a box through its selection handles.

 Syntax

VB6

Public Property Get MnpHandlesMask() As Long
Public Property Let MnpHandlesMask( _
    ByVal value As Long _
)

C++

public:
int get_MnpHandlesMask ()
void put_MnpHandlesMask (
    int value
)

 Property Value

A long value. The default is 0xFFFFFFFF.

 Remarks

A bit-mask allowing the possible users' modifications to a box to be restricted. Each manipulation handle can be enabled or disabled by setting or clearing the bits in the mask. The correspondence of bits to manipulation handles is shown below, the zero bit being the right most in the binary form of a number.

Bit	Handle location	Function
0	upper-left corner manipulation handle	resizes the box
1	upper-right corner manipulation handle	resizes the box
2	bottom-right corner manipulation handle	resizes the box
3	bottom-left corner manipulation handle	resizes the box
4	upper-center manipulation handle	resizes the box vertically
5	right-center manipulation handle	resizes the box horizontally
6	bottom-center corner manipulation handle	resizes the box vertically
7	left-center corner manipulation handle	resizes the box horizontally
8	central manipulation handle	moves the box
9	a round handle above the box	rotates the box

 Example

To make a box resizable only horizontally, use binary 110100000 (hex. 1A0). That disables all manipulation handles, except the middle left and middle right, which allow horizontal resizing, and the central one allowing movement of the box.
