- Alternate pale on
- LINETYPE_INVISIBLE (8L)

Errors
Possible returns from WinGetLastError:
- PMERR_INV_HPS (0x207F)
- An invalid presentation-space handle was specified.
- PMERR_PS_BUSY (0x20F4)
- An attempt was made to access the presentation space from more than one thread simultaneously.
- PMERR_INV_IN_RETAIN_MODE (0x208C)
- An attempt was made to issue a function (for example, query) that is invalid when the actual drawing mode is not draw or draw-and-retain.
- PMERR_INV_DC_TYPE (0x2060)

Example Code
#define INCL_GPIPRIMITIVES /* Or use INCL_GPI, INCL_PM, */ #include <os2.h> HPS hps; /* Presentation-space handle. */ LONG lLineType; /* Line type. */ lLineType = GpiQueryLineType(hps);
This example uses GpiQueryLineType to return the current cosmetic line-type attribute after setting the draw mode to DRAW.
#define INCL_GPIPRIMITIVES /* Primitive functions */ #define INCL_GPICONTROL /* Control functions */ #include <os2.h> HPS hps; /* Presentation-space handle */ LONG lLineType; /* Line type */ if (GpiSetDrawingMode(hps, DM_DRAW) == TRUE) lLineType = GpiQueryLineType(hps);
