Tablets.IsPacketPropertySupported Method

  • Article

Tablets.IsPacketPropertySupported Method

Returns a value that indicates whether a PacketProperty field, identified with a globally unique identifier (GUID), is supported by all Tablet objects in this Tablets collection.

Definition

Visual Basic .NET Public Function IsPacketPropertySupported( _
ByVal g As Guid _
) As Boolean
C# public bool IsPacketPropertySupported(
Guid g
);
Managed C++ public: bool* IsPacketPropertySupported(
Guid *g
);

Parameters

g System.Guid. The Guid Leave Site identifier for the requested PacketProperty field.

Return Value

System.Boolean. Returns a value that indicates whether a PacketProperty field, identified with a globally unique identifier (GUID), is supported by all Tablet objects in this Tablets collection.

true The PacketProperty field is supported throughout this Tablets collection.
false The PacketProperty field is not supported throughout this Tablets collection.

Remarks

This method determines if a Tablets collection supports various fields of the PacketProperty class.

Note: When this method is called on the Tablets collection, it queries all of the tablets on the system. If any of them does not support the property, it returns false. Call the Tablet.IsPacketPropertySupported method on an individual Tablet object to determine whether the device supports a known property.

Examples

[C#]

This C# example reports which PacketProperty fields are available for all Tablet objects in the Tablets collection, allTablets.

using Microsoft.Ink;
// . . .
public string ReportOnAllTablets()
{
    Tablets allTablets = new Tablets();
    string theReport = "";

    // Report on which PacketProperties are supported for all tablets.
    theReport += "PacketProperties Supported:";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.AltitudeOrientation) ? "AltitudeOrientation " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.AzimuthOrientation) ? "AzimuthOrientation " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.ButtonPressure) ? "ButtonPressure " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.NormalPressure) ? "NormalPressure " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.PacketStatus) ? "PacketStatus " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.PitchRotation) ? "PitchRotation " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.RollRotation) ? "RollRotation " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.SerialNumber) ? "SerialNumber " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.TangentPressure) ? "TangentPressure " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.TimerTick) ? "TimerTick " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.TwistOrientation) ? "TwistOrientation " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.X) ? "X " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.XTiltOrientation) ? "XTiltOrientation " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.Y) ? "Y " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.YawRotation) ? "YawRotation " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.YTiltOrientation) ? "YTiltOrientation " : "";
    theReport += allTablets.IsPacketPropertySupported(PacketProperty.Z) ? "Z " : "";
    return theReport;
