InkPicture.Stroke Event

Artículo
12/12/2007

Occurs when the user finishes drawing a new stroke on any tablet.

Namespace: Microsoft.Ink
Assembly: Microsoft.Ink (in microsoft.ink.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Event Stroke As InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler
'Usage
Dim instance As InkPicture
Dim handler As InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler

AddHandler instance.Stroke, handler

public event InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler Stroke

public:
event InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler^ Stroke {
    void add (InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler^ value);
    void remove (InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler^ value);
}

/** @event */
public void add_Stroke (InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler value)

/** @event */
public void remove_Stroke (InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler value)

In JScript, you can handle the events defined by a class, but you cannot define your own.

Not applicable.

Remarks

The event handler receives an argument of type InkCollectorStrokeEventArgs that contains data about this event.

When you create an InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler delegate, you identify the method that handles the event. To associate the event with your event handler, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, unless you remove the delegate. The default event interest is on.

The Stroke event fires when in select or erase mode, not only when inserting ink. This requires that you monitor the editing mode (which you are responsible for setting) and be aware of the mode before interpreting the event. The advantage of this requirement is greater freedom to innovate on the platform through greater awareness of platform events.

Note

The Stroke event fires when the user finishes drawing a stroke, not when a Stroke object is added to the Strokes collection. When the user first starts to draw a stroke, it is added immediately to the Strokes collection; however, the Stroke event does not fire until the stroke is complete. Therefore, Stroke objects can exist in the Strokes collection before the Stroke event handler fires for that Stroke object.

Example

This C# example uses the InkPicture.Stroke event handler to store a time stamp on each Stroke object. During the event handler, the example adds the time stamp to the Stroke object's ExtendedProperties property. A Button control's Click event handler, theButton_Click, fills a ListBoxListBox control, theListBox, with a list of the time stamps.

private Microsoft.Ink.InkPicture theInkPicture;

        //...

        // Add the following after Main() in the generated code.

        // This GUID constant will be used for the strokes'
        // timestamp extended property.
        Guid theTimeGuid = new Guid(10, 11, 12, 10, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            // Enable the InkPicture
            theInkPicture.InkEnabled = true;
            // Add a handler for Stroke Events so we can record
            // an extended property with each one.
            theInkPicture.Stroke += new InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler(TheStrokeHandler);
        }

        public void TheStrokeHandler(object sender, InkCollectorStrokeEventArgs e)
        {
            // Write the current time into this stroke.
            // First get the time as a long.
            long theTime = DateTime.Now.ToFileTime();
            // Store the data under the Guid key.
            e.Stroke.ExtendedProperties.Add(theTimeGuid, theTime);
        }

            theListBox.Items.Clear();

                    // properties list, using the previously defined
                    // Guid as a key to the wanted extended property.
                    long theLong = (long)theStroke.ExtendedProperties[theTimeGuid].Data;
                    // Then turn it (as a FileTime) into a time string.
                    string theTime = DateTime.FromFileTime(theLong).ToString();
                    // Add the string to the listbox.
                    theListBox.Items.Add(theTime);
                }

This Microsoft® Visual Basic® .NET example uses the InkPicture.Stroke event handler to store a time stamp on each Stroke object. During the event handler, the example adds the time stamp to the Stroke object's ExtendedProperties property. A Button control's Click event handler, theButton_Click, fills a ListBoxListBox control, theListBox, with a list of the time stamps.
