WritingRegionNode.GetNodesFromTextRange Method (Int32, Int32, ContextNodeCollection)

Returns a collection of descendant ContextNode objects that are from the specified text range in the recognized string within a collection of descendant nodes.

Namespace: Microsoft.Ink
Assembly: Microsoft.Ink.Analysis (in microsoft.ink.analysis.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function GetNodesFromTextRange ( _
    ByRef start As Integer, _
    ByRef length As Integer, _
    subTree As ContextNodeCollection _
) As ContextNodeCollection
'Usage
Dim instance As WritingRegionNode
Dim start As Integer
Dim length As Integer
Dim subTree As ContextNodeCollection
Dim returnValue As ContextNodeCollection

returnValue = instance.GetNodesFromTextRange(start, length, subTree)
public ContextNodeCollection GetNodesFromTextRange (
    ref int start,
    ref int length,
    ContextNodeCollection subTree
)
public:
ContextNodeCollection^ GetNodesFromTextRange (
    int% start, 
    int% length, 
    ContextNodeCollection^ subTree
)
public ContextNodeCollection GetNodesFromTextRange (
    /** @ref */ int start, 
    /** @ref */ int length, 
    ContextNodeCollection subTree
)
Not applicable.

Parameters

  • start
    The start of the text range in the subTree portion of the recognized string.
  • length
    The length of the text range in the recognized string.
  • subTree
    The descendant ContextNode objects to which to narrow the search.

Return Value

The collection of descendant ContextNode objects that are from the specified text range in the recognized string. The nodes are limited to those that are descendants of subTree.

Remarks

The start and length parameters are references because their values can be changed. If the return value of GetRecognizedString is "I am late" and you pass in values of start = 6 and length = 1 corresponding to the letter "a." The ContextNodeCollection is then likely to have just one ContextNode, which is the InkWordNode that corresponds to the word "late." In this case, the value of start is changed to 5 and the value of length is changed to 4, corresponding to the entire word "late."

Note   The start parameter is relative to the nodes in the subTree part of the recognized string of this WritingRegionNode, rather than the recognized string of the entire WritingRegionNode or the entire RootNode. In the previous example, if you pass in a subTree parameter with nodes for "am" and "late," but not "I," a start parameter of 3 and a length of 4 is the text range for the word "late."

Example

The following example takes a ContextNodeCollection object, lastParagraphLevelCollection, which contains one ContextNode object that corresponds to the last paragraph in a WritingRegionNode, writingRegion. It then marks all of the Strokes black except for the ones in the last paragraph, which it changes to red.

' Get the nodes that correspond to this start and length
Dim selectedNodes As ContextNodeCollection = _
    writingRegion.GetNodesFromTextRange(start, length, lastParagraphCollection)

' Set all strokes to black
Dim inkStroke As Stroke
For Each inkStroke In writingRegion.Strokes
    inkStroke.DrawingAttributes = New DrawingAttributes(Color.Black)
Next inkStroke
' Set strokes in the collection to red
Dim node As ContextNode
For Each node In selectedNodes
    For Each inkStroke In node.Strokes
        inkStroke.DrawingAttributes = New DrawingAttributes(Color.Red)
    Next inkStroke
Next node
// Get the nodes that correspond to this start and length
ContextNodeCollection selectedNodes =
    writingRegion.GetNodesFromTextRange(ref start, ref length, lastParagraphCollection);

// Set all strokes to black
foreach (Stroke stroke in writingRegion.Strokes)
    stroke.DrawingAttributes = new DrawingAttributes(Color.Black);

// Set strokes in the collection to red
foreach (ContextNode node in selectedNodes)
{
    foreach (Stroke stroke in node.Strokes)
    {
        stroke.DrawingAttributes = new DrawingAttributes(Color.Red);
    }
}
