Dim Result As StringBuilder = New StringBuilder(512)
' Wrap access to the Tablet object in a try/catch block.
' If mInkObject is in All Tablets mode, an exception will be
' thrown when accessing the Tablet property.
Try
Result.AppendLine("The tablet associated mInkObject has the following properties:")
' accessing mInkObject.Tablet will throw an exception if in All Tablets mode
' mInkObject can be InkCollector, InkOverlay, or InkPicture
Dim mTablet As Tablet = mInkObject.Tablet
Result.AppendLine("Tablet Name: " + mTablet.Name)
Result.AppendLine("Tablet PNP ID: " + mTablet.PlugAndPlayId)
Result.AppendLine("Tablet Max Rect: " + mTablet.MaximumInputRectangle.ToString())
Result.AppendLine("Tablet Capabilities: " + mTablet.HardwareCapabilities)
Catch ex As System.Exception
Result.AppendLine("mInkObject is in all tablets mode.")
Result.AppendLine("The tablet report cannot be generated.")
End Try
Return Result.ToString()
End Function
public string InkObjectTabletReport()
{
StringBuilder Result = new StringBuilder(512);
// Wrap access to the Tablet object in a try/catch block.
