Members Table

The following table lists the members exposed by the object.

Fields

Field	Description
AltitudeOrientation	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the angle between the axis of the pen and the surface of the tablet.
AzimuthOrientation	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the clockwise rotation of the cursor about the z-axis through a full circular range.
ButtonPressure	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for pressure on a pressure sensitive button.
NormalPressure	The Guid for the PacketProperty object that represents pressure of the pen tip perpendicular to the tablet surface.
PacketStatus	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the current status of the cursor.
PitchRotation	The Guid for the PacketProperty object that indicates whether the tip is above or below a horizontal line that is perpendicular to the writing surface.
RollRotation	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the clockwise rotation of the pen around its own axis.
SerialNumber	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for identifying the packet.
TangentPressure	The Guid for the PacketProperty object that represents pressure of the pen tip along the plane of the tablet surface.
TimerTick	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the time the packet was generated.
TwistOrientation	The Guid for the PacketPropertyobject for the clockwise rotation of the cursor about its own axis.
X	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the x-coordinate in the tablet coordinate space.
XTiltOrientation	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the angle between the y,z-plane and the pen and y-axis plane.
Y	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the y-coordinate in the tablet coordinate space.
YawRotation	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the angle of the pen to the left or right around the center of its horizontal axis when the pen is horizontal.
YTiltOrientation	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the angle between the x,z-plane and the pen and x-axis plane.
Z	The Guid for the PacketProperty object for the z-coordinate or distance of the pen tip from the tablet surface.

Methods

Method	Description
Equals	Determines whether two Object instances are equal. Inherited from Object .
Finalize	Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. Inherited from Object .
GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type, suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table. Inherited from Object .
GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. Inherited from Object .
MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object . Inherited from Object .
ReferenceEquals	Determines whether the specified Object instances are the same instance. Inherited from Object .
ToString	Returns a String that represents the current Object . Inherited from Object .

Remarks

Globally unique identifiers (GUIDs ) are used to identify packet properties, and these are available as read-only fields of the PacketProperty object. Use these GUIDs to access the available properties of a Tablet or a collection of Tablets.

Note: All packet values coming from the tablet hardware are 32-bit size integers.
