Namespace: System.Windows.Ink.AnalysisCore
Assembly: IACore (in iacore.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property Capabilities As InkRecognizerCapabilities
'Usage
Dim instance As InkRecognizerBase
Dim value As InkRecognizerCapabilities

value = instance.Capabilities

public InkRecognizerCapabilities Capabilities { get; }

public:
property InkRecognizerCapabilities Capabilities {
    InkRecognizerCapabilities get ();
}

/** @property */
public InkRecognizerCapabilities get_Capabilities ()

public function get Capabilities () : InkRecognizerCapabilities

Not applicable.

Property Value

A bitwise combination of the Capabilities values.

Remarks

This value is constant for each InkRecognizerBase.

Example

The following example defines a method that returns a string containing information about a specified InkRecognizerBase. 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 InkRecognizerBase.
