Remarks
The width of the PenInputPanel object is dependent on the screen resolution for the particular Tablet PC.
Starting with Microsoft® Windows® XP Tablet PC Edition 2005, the Tablet PC Input Panel allows the user to continue entering handwriting by automatically increasing the size of the Input Panel to accomodate new handwriting. The Height and Width properties do not update to reflect the new size as the Input Panel grows. These properties return the original size of the Input Panel. They also do not report the dimensions of the Input Panel hover target.
Security Note: |

If using under partial trust, this property requires SecurityPermissionFlag.AllFlags permission, in addition to the permissions required by PenInputPanel. See Security and Trust for more information. |
Example
This C# example creates a PenInputPanel object, thePenInputPanel
, and attaches it to an InkEdit control, inkEdit1
. It then attaches a VisibleChanged event handler, VisibleChanged_Event
. In the event handler, it adds a sentence to the content of the edit control to which the PenInputPanel is attached. The sentence states the width of the pen input panel in pixels by retrieving the Width property and converting it to a string with the ToString method.
[C#]
//...
// Delcare the PenInputPanel object
PenInputPanel thePenInputPanel;
public Form1()
{
// Required for Windows Form Designer support
InitializeComponent();
// Create and attach the new PenInputPanel to an InkEdit control.
thePenInputPanel = new PenInputPanel(inkEdit1);
// Add a VisibleChanged event handler
thePenInputPanel.VisibleChanged +=
new PenInputPanelVisibleChangedEventHandler(VisibleChanged_Event);
}
//...
public void VisibleChanged_Event(object sender,
PenInputPanelVisibleChangedEventArgs e)
{
// Make sure the object that generated
// the event is a PenInputPanel object
if (sender is PenInputPanel)
{
PenInputPanel theSenderPanel = (PenInputPanel)sender;
// When the panel has become visible...
if (e.NewVisibility)
{
// Display the width of the panel in the attached edit control
theSenderPanel.AttachedEditControl.Text +=
"The width of the panel is ";
theSenderPanel.AttachedEditControl.Text +=
theSenderPanel.Width.ToString();
theSenderPanel.AttachedEditControl.Text += " pixels.\n";
}
}
