Description

Arrange layers in mxn configuration.

Syntax

int ArrangeLayers(ArrangeLayersInfo& info)

Parameters

ArrangeLayersInfo: [input]arrange settings

struct ArrangeLayersInfo
{
        // matrix geometry
        int                rows;
        int                cols;

        int*  indices;
        int                count;

        // % of page width
        int                leftMargin;
        int                rightMargin;
        int                hGap;
        int                hMin;           // min layer width

        // % of page height
        int                topMargin;
        int                bottomMargin;
        int                vGap;
        int                vMin;           // min layer height

        int                nRepeat;        // repeat count of calls to improve visual, typically 3 times is good enough
        int                threshold;      // LP (positive) or 0.01% of page width/height (negative) threshold to allow arranging layers, 0 to disable
        int                nFixFactor;     // zero do not fix layer scale factors, otherwise % (100 means current sizes)
        DWORD   dwCntrl;        // ALICNTRL
};

Return

Returns number of arranged layer on successful exit and < 0 on failure.
