Examples

Here's a definition of a custom calligraphic pen.

In code-behind, we first create a custom pen class derived from InkToolbarCustomPen.

A custom pen class must override the CreateInkDrawingAttributesCore method and provide the InkDrawingAttributes for the custom configuration. In this example, we customize the following InkDrawingAttributes:

PenTip is set to PenTipShape.Circle;
Size is set to a Windows.Foundation.Size of (strokeWidth, strokeWidth * 20).
Color is set to the SolidColorBrush selected from the palette, or Colors.Black by default.
PenTipTransform (through Matrix3x2.CreateRotation) is set to rotate the pen tip by 45°.

using System.Numerics;
using Windows.UI;
using Windows.UI.Input.Inking;
using Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls;
using Windows.UI.Xaml.Media;

namespace Ink_Basic_InkToolbar
{
    class CalligraphicPen : InkToolbarCustomPen
    {

        public CalligraphicPen()
        {
        }

        protected override InkDrawingAttributes CreateInkDrawingAttributesCore(Brush brush, double strokeWidth)
        {
            InkDrawingAttributes inkDrawingAttributes = new InkDrawingAttributes();
            inkDrawingAttributes.PenTip = PenTipShape.Circle;
            inkDrawingAttributes.Size = new Windows.Foundation.Size(strokeWidth, strokeWidth * 20);
            SolidColorBrush solidColorBrush = brush as SolidColorBrush;
            if (solidColorBrush != null)
            {
                inkDrawingAttributes.Color = solidColorBrush.Color;
            }
            else
            {
                inkDrawingAttributes.Color = Colors.Black;
            }
            Matrix3x2 matrix = Matrix3x2.CreateRotation(.785f);
            inkDrawingAttributes.PenTipTransform = matrix;

            return inkDrawingAttributes;
        }
    }
}

In markup, we then bind our custom pen class using a {StaticResource} markup extension reference in the CustomPen attribute of the InkToolbarCustomPenButton element (alternatively, you can instantiate the custom pen and assign it to InkToolbarCustomPenButton.CustomPen in code).

You can use the built-in InkToolbarPenConfigurationControl (as shown here) or you can specify a custom InkToolbarPenConfigurationControl definition in the standard InkToolbar pen declaration.

Here's the declaration for the custom pen defined in the previous snippet.

<!-- Set up locally defined resource dictionary. -->
<Page.Resources>
    <!-- Add the custom CalligraphicPen to the page resources. -->
    <local:CalligraphicPen x:Key="CalligraphicPen" />
    <!-- Specify the colors for the palette of the custom pen. -->
    <BrushCollection x:Key="CalligraphicPenPalette">
        <SolidColorBrush Color="Blue" />
        <SolidColorBrush Color="Red" />
    </BrushCollection>
</Page.Resources>

<Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
        <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
    <StackPanel x:Name="HeaderPanel" Orientation="Horizontal" Grid.Row="0">
        <TextBlock x:Name="Header" 
                   Text="Basic ink sample" 
                   Style="{ThemeResource HeaderTextBlockStyle}" 
                   Margin="10,0,0,0" />
    </StackPanel>
    <Grid Grid.Row="1">
        <Image Source="Assets\StoreLogo.png" />
        <InkCanvas x:Name="inkCanvas" />
        <InkToolbar x:Name="inkToolbar" 
                    VerticalAlignment="Top" 
                    TargetInkCanvas="{x:Bind inkCanvas}">
            <InkToolbarCustomPenButton 
                CustomPen="{StaticResource CalligraphicPen}"
                MinStrokeWidth="1" MaxStrokeWidth="3" SelectedStrokeWidth="2"
                Palette="{StaticResource CalligraphicPenPalette}"
                SelectedBrushIndex ="1"
                ToolTipService.ToolTip="Calligraphic pen">                    
                <SymbolIcon Symbol="{x:Bind CalligraphicPenIcon}"/>                    
                <InkToolbarCustomPenButton.ConfigurationContent>
                    <InkToolbarPenConfigurationControl />
                </InkToolbarCustomPenButton.ConfigurationContent>
            </InkToolbarCustomPenButton>                
        </InkToolbar>
    </Grid>
</Grid>

Here's the definition of CalligraphicPenIcon from the MainPage.xaml.cs file of this example.

namespace Ink_Basic_InkToolbar
{
    /// <summary>
    /// An empty page that can be used on its own or navigated to within a Frame.
    /// </summary>
    public sealed partial class MainPage_AddCustomPen : Page
    {
        // Icon for calligraphic pen custom button.
        Symbol CalligraphicPenIcon = (Symbol)0xEDFB;

        public MainPage_AddCustomPen()
        {
            this.InitializeComponent();
        }
    }
}

Remarks

To create an app-defined pen and corresponding button on the InkToolbar, use this class in conjunction with InkToolbarCustomPenButton.

Constructors

InkToolbarCustomPen()

Initializes a new instance of the InkToolbarCustomPen class.

Properties

Dispatcher

Gets the CoreDispatcher that this object is associated with. The CoreDispatcher represents a facility that can access the DependencyObject on the UI thread even if the code is initiated by a non-UI thread.
