InkCanvasEditingMode Enumeration

[This documentation is for preview only, and is subject to change in later releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

Specifies the editing mode for the InkCanvas

Namespace:  System.Windows.Controls
Assembly:  PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)
public enum InkCanvasEditingMode
<object property="enumerationMemberName" .../>
Member nameDescription
NoneIndicates that no action is taken when the pen sends data to the InkCanvas.
InkIndicates that ink appears on the InkCanvas when the pen sends data to it.
GestureOnlyIndicates that the InkCanvas responds to gestures, and does not receive ink.
InkAndGestureIndicates that the InkCanvas responds to gestures, and receives ink.
SelectIndicates that the pen selects strokes and elements on the InkCanvas.
EraseByPointIndicates that the pen erases part of a stroke when the pen intersects the stroke.
EraseByStrokeIndicates that the pen erases an entire stroke when the pen intersects the stroke.

The EditingMode and EditingModeInverted properties use the InkCanvasEditingMode to specify how the InkCanvas behaves when it receives input from a tablet pen.

The following example demonstrates how to allow users to partially erase strokes with the inverted tip of a stylus. An elliptical cursor appears on the InkCanvas when the user erases ink.


inkCanvas1.EditingModeInverted = InkCanvasEditingMode.EraseByPoint;
inkCanvas1.EraserShape = new EllipseStylusShape(5, 5);
