TMetafile.SaveToClipboardFormat Method

Saves a metafile to a Clipboard format.

Pascal
procedure SaveToClipboardFormat(var AFormat: Word; var AData: THandle; var APalette: HPALETTE); override;
C++
virtual __fastcall SaveToClipboardFormat(Word AFormat, THandle AData, HPALETTE APalette);

Use SaveToClipboardFormat to copy the metafile to a Clipboard format. The resulting values can then be copied to the Windows clipboard using the clipboard's SetAsHandle method. 

The metafile's palette is returned in the APalette parameter, the format in the AFormat parameter, and a handle to the data in the AData parameter. Before the metafile can be saved, an application must have registered the format with the metafile object using the RegisterClipboardFormat method. 

To save a metafile to a file, call SaveToFile
