 System::Windows::Input::TouchPoint ^ GetPrimaryTouchPoint(System::Windows::IInputElement ^ relativeTo);

public System.Windows.Input.TouchPoint GetPrimaryTouchPoint (System.Windows.IInputElement relativeTo);

member this.GetPrimaryTouchPoint : System.Windows.IInputElement -> System.Windows.Input.TouchPoint

Public Function GetPrimaryTouchPoint (relativeTo As IInputElement) As TouchPoint

Parameters

relativeTo: IInputElement

The element that defines the coordinate space. To use WPF absolute coordinates, specify relativeTo as null.

Returns

TouchPoint

The current position of the primary TouchDevice relative to the specified element; or null if the primary TouchDevice is not active.

Examples

The following code processes the touch points that are retrieved from the TouchFrameEventArgs. When a touch is pressed on the Canvas, the TouchDevice is captured to the Canvas. When the touch is lifted, the TouchDevice is released. When a touch moves across the Canvas, the Id is checked. If the Id matches the Id of the primary touch point, which indicates the first touch, its location is recorded. If the move came from the second touch, a line is drawn from the position of the first touch to the position of the second touch.

This example is part of a larger example that is available in the Touch class overview.

foreach (TouchPoint _touchPoint in e.GetTouchPoints(this.canvas1))
{
    if (_touchPoint.Action == TouchAction.Down)
    {
        // Clear the canvas and capture the touch to it.
        this.canvas1.Children.Clear();
        _touchPoint.TouchDevice.Capture(this.canvas1);
    }

    else if (_touchPoint.Action == TouchAction.Move && e.GetPrimaryTouchPoint(this.canvas1) != null)
    {   
        // This is the first (primary) touch point. Just record its position.
        if (_touchPoint.TouchDevice.Id == e.GetPrimaryTouchPoint(this.canvas1).TouchDevice.Id)
        {
            pt1.X = _touchPoint.Position.X;
            pt1.Y = _touchPoint.Position.Y;
        }

        // This is not the first touch point. Draw a line from the first point to this one.
        else if (_touchPoint.TouchDevice.Id != e.GetPrimaryTouchPoint(this.canvas1).TouchDevice.Id)

Remarks

In a set of active touch devices, the first device to be Activated is the primary touch device. For example, if two fingers are touching the screen, the first finger that is down is represented by the primary touch device. If the first finger is lifted while the second finger is still down, the primary touch device becomes null.
