Examples

This example demonstrates how to render an ink stroke using pencil attributes.

First, we declare the InkCanvas in XAML.

In the code-behind, we define a SetPencilInkStyle() function to specify the pencil stroke attributes.

Create a specialized InkDrawingAttributes object through the CreateForPencil method.
Set some general stroke attributes, such as Color and Size.
If InkDrawingAttributesKind is Pencil, set the Opacity attribute.
Call UpdateDefaultDrawingAttributes to set the InkDrawingAttributes used by the InkPresenter when rendering a new InkStroke on an InkCanvas control.

<InkCanvas x:Name="inkCanvas"/>

public sealed partial class Sample : Page
{
  public SetPencilInkStyle()
  {
    // Initialize the pencil stroke attributes.
    InkDrawingAttributes pencilAttributes = InkDrawingAttributes.CreateForPencil();
    pencilAttributes.Color = Windows.UI.Colors.Red;
    pencilAttributes.Size = new Windows.Foundation.Size(3, 3);
    Debug.Assert(attributes.Kind == InkDrawingAttributesKind.Pencil);
    pencilAttributes.PencilProperties.Opacity = 0.5f;
    // Update InkPresenter with the pencil attributes.
    inkCanvas.InkPresenter.UpdateDefaultDrawingAttributes(pencilAttributes);
  }
}

struct MainPage : MainPageT<MainPage>
{
    void SetPencilInkStyle()
    {
        // Initialize the pencil stroke attributes.
        auto pencilAttributes{ Windows::UI::Input::Inking::InkDrawingAttributes::CreateForPencil() };
        pencilAttributes.Color(Windows::UI::Colors::Red());
        pencilAttributes.Size({ 3, 3 });
        WINRT_ASSERT(pencilAttributes.Kind() == Windows::UI::Input::Inking::InkDrawingAttributesKind::Pencil);
        pencilAttributes.PencilProperties().Opacity(.5f);
        // Update the InkPresenter with the pencil attributes.
        m_inkCanvas.InkPresenter().UpdateDefaultDrawingAttributes(pencilAttributes);
    }
}

public sealed partial class Sample : Page
{
  public SetPencilInkStyle()
  {
    // Initialize the pencil stroke attributes.
    InkDrawingAttributes^ pencilAttributes = InkDrawingAttributes::CreateForPencil();
    pencilAttributes->Color = Windows::UI::Colors::Red;
    pencilAttributes->Size = Windows::Foundation::Size(3, 3);
    assert(pencilAttributes->Kind == InkDrawingAttributesKind::Pencil);
    pencilAttributes->PencilProperties->Opacity = 0.5f;
    // Update the InkPresenter with the pencil attributes.
    inkCanvas->InkPresenter->UpdateDefaultDrawingAttributes(pencilAttributes);
  }
}

Remarks

By default, a pencil draws a soft-edged, textured, and semi-transparent stroke (useful for layered shading effects) with a Circle PenTip. The stroke color (darkness) is dependent on the pen pressure detected.

Properties

Opacity

Gets or sets the level of transparency used for rendering a pencil stroke on an InkCanvas.

Opacity is a static property of InkDrawingAttributes.
