Stylus
Examples
The following example demonstrates how to record the coordinates of the stylus, even if the stylus leaves the bounds of a TextBox. This example assumes that there is a TextBox called textBox1, and that the StylusDown, StylusUp, and StylusMove events are connected to event handlers.
void textbox1_StylusDown(object sender, StylusDownEventArgs e)
{
Stylus.Capture(textbox1);
}
void textbox1_StylusMove(object sender, StylusEventArgs e)
{
Point pos = e.GetPosition(textbox1);
textbox1.AppendText("X: " + pos.X + " Y: " + pos.Y + "\n");
}
void textbox1_StylusUp(object sender, StylusEventArgs e)
{
Stylus.Capture(textbox1, CaptureMode.None);
}
Private Sub textbox1_StylusDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Input.StylusDownEventArgs) _
Handles textbox1.StylusDown
Stylus.Capture(textbox1)
End Sub
Private Sub textbox1_StylusMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As StylusEventArgs) _
Handles textbox1.StylusMove
Dim pos As Point = e.GetPosition(textbox1)
textbox1.AppendText("X: " & pos.X.ToString() & " Y: " & pos.Y.ToString() & vbLf)
End Sub
Private Sub textbox1_StylusUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As StylusEventArgs) _
Handles textbox1.StylusUp
Stylus.Capture(textbox1, CaptureMode.None)
End Sub
