Example

This C# example creates an event handler for a button click event, theButton_Click. Before processing the action from the button click, the handler checks to see if the PenInputPanel object, thePenInputPanel, is processing ink. If so, the event handler calls the CommitPendingInput method to force the PenInputPanel object to complete processing ink before proceeding.

[C#]

//...
private void theButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    // If the PenInputPanel is still processing ink...
    if (thePenInputPanel.Busy)
    {
        // Force the PenInputPanel to commit user input
        thePenInputPanel.CommitPendingInput();
    }

    // Process the action from the button click
    //...
}
