Attributes

Remarks

Property getter documentation:

Return whether the View allows automatic handwriting initiation. Returns true if automatic handwriting initiation is enabled, and verse visa.

Java documentation for android.view.View.isAutoHandwritingEnabled().

Property setter documentation:

Set whether this view enables automatic handwriting initiation.

For a view with an active InputConnection, if auto handwriting is enabled then stylus movement within its view boundary will automatically trigger the handwriting mode. Check android.view.inputmethod.InputMethodManager#startStylusHandwriting(View) for more details about handwriting mode.

If the View wants to initiate handwriting mode by itself, it can set this field to false and call android.view.inputmethod.InputMethodManager#startStylusHandwriting(View) when there is stylus movement detected.

Note that this attribute has no effect on the View's children. For example, if a ViewGroup disables auto handwriting but its children set auto handwriting to true, auto handwriting will still work for the children, and vice versa.
