Example

The following example shows how to use the Type property of a ContextNodeBase object, selectedNode. The text of a TextBox, selectedResultsTextBox, is filled differently depending on the type of node. In most cases, the recognized string is used, but for InkWord, the line's recognized string is used, and the word is selected in the TextBox.

If (selectedNode.ContainsPropertyData(PropertyGuidsForContextNodesBase.RecognizedString) AndAlso _
   (selectedNode.Type = System.Windows.Ink.AnalysisCore.ContextNodeTypeBase.WritingRegion OrElse _

    selectedNode.Type = System.Windows.Ink.AnalysisCore.ContextNodeTypeBase.Object OrElse _
    selectedNode.Type = System.Windows.Ink.AnalysisCore.ContextNodeTypeBase.Line)) Then

    selectedResultsTextBox.Text = _
        CType(selectedNode.GetPropertyData(PropertyGuidsForContextNodesBase.RecognizedString), String)

ElseIf (selectedNode.Type = System.Windows.Ink.AnalysisCore.ContextNodeTypeBase.InkWord) Then
    Dim parentNode As ContextNodeBase = selectedNode.ParentNode

        ' Put parent line's recognized string into the text box
        selectedResultsTextBox.Text = _
            CType(parentNode.GetPropertyData(PropertyGuidsForContextNodesBase.RecognizedString), String)
