SetEventInterest Method (Automation Only)
SetEventInterest Method (Automation Only) |
Sets a value that indicates whether an object or control has interest in a specified event.
Declaration
[C++]
HRESULT SetEventInterest (
[in] InkCollectorEventInterest eventId,
[in] VARIANT_BOOL listen
);
[Microsoft® Visual Basic® 6.0]
Public Sub SetEventInterest( _
eventId As InkCollectorEventInterest, _
listen As Boolean _
)
Parameters
eventId
[in] The event to be listened for. Possible values for eventID appear in the InkCollectorEventInterest enumeration type.
Note: In Visual Basic 6.0, the ICEI_AllEvents flag does not appear in the Object Browser or the IntelliSense menus, but can still be accessed by name.
listen
Specifies whether the event is being listened for. The value is TRUE if the event is being used and FALSE if it is being ignored.
Return Value
HRESULT value | Description |
---|---|
S_OK | Success. |
E_POINTER | A parameter contained an invalid pointer. |
E_INVALIDARG | Invalid event interest. |
E_INK_EXCEPTION | An exception occurred during processing. |
Remarks
All ink collector events can be toggled by using this method. Most of these events are turned off by default for performance reasons. The only events that are on by default are Stroke, CursorInRange, and CursorOutOfRange.
Use the NewPackets, NewInAirPackets and CursorDown events carefully, in particular because they may have an adverse effect on ink performance if too much code is executed in the event handlers.
Example
[Visual Basic 6.0]
This Visual Basic 6.0 example calls SetEventInterest on several cursor button events in a new InkCollector object in order to display information in a text box as the events are received.
