MouGetScaleFact

This call returns a pair of 1-word scaling factors for the current mouse device.

MouGetScaleFact (ScaleStruct, DeviceHandle)

• ScaleStruct (PSCALEFACT) - output: Address of the control block structure that contains the current row and column coordinate scaling factors.

See MouSetScaleFact for more information.

• DeviceHandle (HMOU) - input: Contains the handle of the mouse device obtained from a previous MouOpen.

rc (USHORT) - return:Return code descriptions are:

• 0 NO_ERROR
• 385 ERROR_MOUSE_NO_DEVICE
• 466 ERROR_MOU_DETACHED
• 501 ERROR_MOUSE_NO_CONSOLE
• 505 ERROR_MOU_EXTENDED_SG

The units of the scale factor depend on the mode of the display screen for the session. If the screen is operating in text mode, the scaling units are relative to characters. If the screen is operating in graphics mode, the scaling units are relative to pels.
