Return Value

Remarks

For western languages, the descender is the portion of a lowercase letter that falls below the baseline, such as the vertical line of the letter "p" that extends below the lowest point of the circle in that letter. The descender line is the imaginary horizontal line that runs along the bottom of the descenders.

Example

The following example draws the descender line for an InkWordNode, inkWord, by using a Renderer object, theRenderer, and a Graphics object, panelGraphics, which was created by a Panel.

Dim descenderPoints As Point() = inkWord.GetDescender()

' Convert to pixel coordinates
Dim indexDescender As Integer
For indexDescender = 0 To descenderPoints.Length - 1
    theRenderer.InkSpaceToPixel(panelGraphics, descenderPoints(indexDescender))
Next indexDescender
panelGraphics.DrawLines(New Pen(Color.Yellow), descenderPoints)

Point[] descenderPoints = inkWord.GetDescender();
// Convert to pixel coordinates
for (int i = 0; i < descenderPoints.Length; i++)
{
    theRenderer.InkSpaceToPixel(panelGraphics, ref descenderPoints[i]);
}
panelGraphics.DrawLines(new Pen(Color.Yellow), descenderPoints);
