IRealTimeStylus::SetSingleTabletMode method (rtscom.h)

Modifies the mode for RealTimeStylus Class (RTS) object to collect input from only one tablet object representing a digitizer attached to the Tablet PC. Stylus input from other digitizers is ignored by the RealTimeStylus.

Syntax

HRESULT SetSingleTabletMode(
  [in] IInkTablet *piTablet
);

Parameters

[in] piTablet

The IInkTablet Interface object that represents the digitizer device attached to the Tablet PC.

Return value

For a description of the return values, see RealTimeStylus Classes and Interfaces.

Remarks

A RealTimeStylus Class can be set to one of two tablet-related modes:

• All tablets mode (default)
• Single tablet mode

Examples

The following C++ example code sets a IRealTimeStylus object, g_pRealTimeStylus, to single tablet mode so it can get the tablet and retrieve its plug-and-play identifier. Then it sets the IRealTimeStylus object back to all tablets mode.

// Must be in single tablet mode for GetTablet to succeed. This call to
// SetSingleTabletMode() would likely happen somewhere else in the app.
if (SUCCEEDED(g_pRealTimeStylus->SetSingleTabletMode(pInkTablet)))
{
    IInkTablet* pTablet = NULL;

    if ((SUCCEEDED(g_pRealTimeStylus->GetTablet(&pTablet))) && (NULL != pTablet))
    {
        BSTR bstrPnPID;

        if (SUCCEEDED(pTablet->get_PlugAndPlayId(&bstrPnPID)))
        {
            TRACE("The tablet's Plug-n-Play ID is: %s\n", bstrPnPID);
        }
    }

    // Restore all tablets mode.
    g_pRealTimeStylus->SetAllTabletsMode(TRUE);
}
