Provides access to handwriting recognizers for use with ink analysis.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Class InkRecognizer
    Implements IDisposable
'Usage
Dim instance As InkRecognizer

public class InkRecognizer : IDisposable

public ref class InkRecognizer : IDisposable

public class InkRecognizer implements IDisposable

public class InkRecognizer implements IDisposable

Not applicable.

Remarks

A recognizer has specific attributes and properties that allow it to perform recognition. The properties of a recognizer must be determined before recognition can occur. The types of properties that a recognizer supports determine the types of recognition that it can perform. For instance, if a recognizer does not support cursive handwriting, it returns inaccurate results when a user writes in cursive.

A recognizer also has built-in functionality that automatically manages many aspects of handwriting. For instance, it determines the metrics for the lines on which strokes are drawn. You can return the line number of a stroke, but you never need to specify how those line metrics are determined because of the built-in functionality of the recognizer.

The InkAnalyzer maintains a InkRecognizerCollection of available recognizers. To access this collection, use the inherited System.Windows.Ink.InkAnalyzerBase.InkRecognizersByPriority property of the InkAnalyzer.

Example

The following example defines a method that returns a string containing information about a specified InkRecognizer. Not shown in this example are the helper methods ListCapabilities and GetPropertyName, which use reflection to return information about specific capabilities and properties of the InkRecognizer.
