RecognizerGuide.WritingBox Property

Gets or sets the invisible writing area of the guide box in which writing can actually take place.

Definition

Visual Basic .NET Public Property WritingBox As Rectangle
C# public Rectangle WritingBox { get; set; }
Managed C++ public: __property Rectangle* get_WritingBox();
public: __property void set_WritingBox(Rectangle*);

Property Value

System.Drawing.Rectangle. The rectangular writing area of the guide box in ink space coordinates.

This property is read/write. This property has no default value.

Remarks

The writing box provides a margin of error to users who write outside the drawn box – the lines that are physically drawn on the tablet's screen within which users write. You can use the DrawnBox property to set the drawn box.

Examples

    theRecognizerGuide.Rows = rows;
    theRecognizerGuide.Midline = midline;
    theRecognizerGuide.DrawnBox = drawnBox;
    theRecognizerGuide.WritingBox = writingBox;
}
