\section{\class{wxMetafile}}\label{wxmetafile}
A {\bf wxMetafile} represents the MS Windows metafile object, so metafile
operations have no effect in X. In wxWidgets, only sufficient functionality
has been provided for copying a graphic to the clipboard; this may be extended
in a future version. Presently, the only way of creating a metafile
is to use a wxMetafileDC.

\membersection{wxMetafile::wxMetafile}\label{wxmetafilector}
\func{}{wxMetafile}{\param{const wxString\& }{filename = ""}}
Constructor. If a filename is given, the Windows disk metafile is
read in. Check whether this was performed successfully by
using the \helpref{wxMetafile:IsOk}{wxmetafileisok} member.
\membersection{wxMetafile::\destruct{wxMetafile}}\label{wxmetafiledtor}
\func{}{\destruct{wxMetafile}}{\void}
Destructor.
See \helpref{reference-counted object destruction}{refcountdestruct} for more info.
\membersection{wxMetafile::IsOk}\label{wxmetafileisok}
\func{bool}{Ok}{\void}
Returns true if the metafile is valid.
\membersection{wxMetafile::Play}\label{wxmetafileplay}
\func{bool}{Play}{\param{wxDC *}{dc}}
Plays the metafile into the given device context, returning
true if successful.
\membersection{wxMetafile::SetClipboard}\label{wxmetafilesetclipboard}
\func{bool}{SetClipboard}{\param{int}{ width = 0}, \param{int}{ height = 0}}
Passes the metafile data to the clipboard. The metafile can no longer be
used for anything, but the wxMetafile object must still be destroyed by
the application.
Below is a example of metafile, metafile device context and clipboard use
from the {\tt hello.cpp} example. Note the way the metafile dimensions
are passed to the clipboard, making use of the device context's ability
to keep track of the maximum extent of drawing commands.
\begin{verbatim}
wxMetafileDC dc;
if (dc.Ok())
{
Draw(dc, false);
wxMetafile *mf = dc.Close();
if (mf)
{
bool success = mf->SetClipboard((int)(dc.MaxX() + 10), (int)(dc.MaxY() + 10));
delete mf;
}
}
\end{verbatim}
\section{\class{wxMetafileDC}}\label{wxmetafiledc}
This is a type of device context that allows a metafile object to be
created (Windows only), and has most of the characteristics of a normal
\rtfsp{\bf wxDC}. The \helpref{wxMetafileDC::Close}{wxmetafiledcclose} member must be called after drawing into the
device context, to return a metafile. The only purpose for this at
present is to allow the metafile to be copied to the clipboard (see \helpref{wxMetafile}{wxmetafile}).
Adding metafile capability to an application should be easy if you
already write to a wxDC; simply pass the wxMetafileDC to your drawing
function instead. You may wish to conditionally compile this code so it
is not compiled under X (although no harm will result if you leave it
in).
Note that a metafile saved to disk is in standard Windows metafile format,
and cannot be imported into most applications. To make it importable,
call the function \helpref{::wxMakeMetafilePlaceable}{wxmakemetafileplaceable} after
closing your disk-based metafile device context.

\membersection{wxMetafileDC::wxMetafileDC}\label{wxmetafiledcctor}
\func{}{wxMetafileDC}{\param{const wxString\& }{filename = ""}}
Constructor. If no filename is passed, the metafile is created
in memory.
\membersection{wxMetafileDC::\destruct{wxMetafileDC}}\label{wxmetafiledcdtor}
\func{}{\destruct{wxMetafileDC}}{\void}
Destructor.
\membersection{wxMetafileDC::Close}\label{wxmetafiledcclose}
\func{wxMetafile *}{Close}{\void}
This must be called after the device context is finished with. A
metafile is returned, and ownership of it passes to the calling
application (so it should be destroyed explicitly).
