Method XbpFileDev():metaFile() Foundation

Creates an XbpMetaFile object that can be used to save the recorded graphic information in a metafile.

Syntax
:metaFile() --> oXbpMetaFile
Return

This method returns an XbpMetaFile object.

Description

After the graphic output in the presentation space linked to the XbpFileDev object is complete, the XbpFileDev object must be detached from the presentation space. This is done using the :configure(NIL)method of the presentation space. The method :metaFile() is then executed and returns an XbpMetaFile object that can be used to save the graphic information in a file via the XbpMetaFile object's :save()method (see the example).
