MovePortTo

MovePortTo Change position of top-left corner of portRect

#include <Quickdraw.h> Quickdraw

void MovePortTo(leftGlobal, topGlobal );

 short leftGlobal; position for left edge (global  coordinates)
 short topGlobal ; position for top (global  coordinates)

MovePortTo re positions the portRect of the current GrafPort. It is used by

the Window Manager to reposition windows.

leftGlobal and . . .

topGlobal are the desired coordinates for the top and left fields of the

GrafPort's portRect.

Notes: This changes the position at which subsequent drawing will appear for the

active GrafPort. It effectively moves the active area of the GrafPort by

adding offsets to all fields of the portRect such that the top-left corner is

moved to the global coordinate pair leftGlobal , topGlobal . The height and

width of the portRect remain the same and the local coordinate system is not

changed.

As with PortSize, this does not affect other fields of the GrafPort;

drawing continues to be clipped to the intersection of portRect, visRgn, and

clipRgn.

Unlike SetOrigin, this has no effect on the local coordinate system. It

moves the port to a different part of the BitMap.
