Property Value

The rectangular writing area of the guide box, in ink space coordinates.

Remarks

The writing box provides a margin of error to users who write outside the drawn box – the lines that are physically drawn on the tablet's screen within which users write. Use the DrawnBox property to set the drawn box.

Example

This C# example sets all of the values in the guide simultaneously.

private void ResetGuideSettings(
    ref RecognizerGuide theRecognizerGuide,
    int columns,
    int rows,
    int midline,
    Rectangle drawnBox,
    Rectangle writingBox)
{
    theRecognizerGuide.Columns = columns;
    theRecognizerGuide.Rows = rows;
    theRecognizerGuide.Midline = midline;
    theRecognizerGuide.DrawnBox = drawnBox;
    theRecognizerGuide.WritingBox = writingBox;
}
