Examples

The following example demonstrates how to add a custom property to a Stroke object.

// Create a guid for the date/timestamp.
Guid dtGuid = new Guid("03457307-3475-3450-3035-640435034540");

DateTime now = DateTime.Now;

// Check whether the property is already saved
if (thisStroke.ContainsPropertyData(dtGuid))
{
    // Check whether the existing property matches the current date/timestamp
    DateTime oldDT = (DateTime)thisStroke.GetPropertyData(dtGuid);

    if (oldDT != now)
    {
        // Update the current date and time
        thisStroke.AddPropertyData(dtGuid, now);
    }
}
' Create a guid for the date/timestamp.
Dim dtGuid As New Guid("03457307-3475-3450-3035-640435034540")

Dim now As DateTime = DateTime.Now

' Check whether the property is already saved
If thisStroke.ContainsPropertyData(dtGuid) Then
    ' Check whether the existing property matches the current date/timestamp
    Dim oldDT As DateTime = CType(thisStroke.GetPropertyData(dtGuid), DateTime)

    If oldDT <> now Then
        ' Update the current date and time
        thisStroke.AddPropertyData(dtGuid, now)
    End If
End If
