The following example creates a custom StylusPlugIn that constrains the ink to a certain area on the control.

Remarks

The StylusPlugIn allows you to manipulate StylusPoint objects on separate threads. Separate threads are used so that the ink still renders as the tablet pen inputs data even if the application is doing something else.

To intercept stylus points from the hardware, create a class that inherits from the StylusPlugIn class. The StylusPlugIn class has the following methods that you can override to manipulate StylusPoint objects on a thread in the pen thread pool.

The pen's input is routed to an element's StylusPlugIn on the pen thread. Since accurate hit-testing cannot be performed on the pen thread, some elements might occasionally receive stylus input intended for other elements. If you need to make sure the input was routed correctly before performing an operation, subscribe to and perform the operation in the OnStylusDownProcessed, OnStylusMoveProcessed, or OnStylusUpProcessed method. These methods are invoked by the main application thread after accurate hit-testing has been performed. To subscribe to these methods, call the NotifyWhenProcessed method in the method that occurs on the pen thread. For example, if you call NotifyWhenProcessed in OnStylusMove, the OnStylusMoveProcessed occurs.

Note

If you use a StylusPlugIn inside a control, you should test the plug-in and control extensively to make sure they do not throw any unintended exceptions.
