- This sample gives interrim access to the Recognition Toggle proto (recToggle).
- recToggle was accidentally left out of NTK 1.0b4, but will appear later....
-
- What is it For?
- ---------------
-
- The recToggle proto can be used to turn word and shape recognition on
- and off. It can also be used to double-tap into the appropriate preference.
-
-
- How does it work?
- -----------------
-
- Any time a user writes/draws into a field that has the input part of the
- viewFlags set to vAnythingAllowed, the system will check the state of
- text and graphics recognition set by this button. If one or both of the
- recognition types have been turned off, no recognition of that type will
- be attempted.
-
- Ahh you say, vAnythingAllowed, I do not see that as an option for NTK.
- You are correct, you have to workaround this. Check out the clEditView
- in the recToggleDemo.t file. It has an afterScript (documented elsewhere),
- that will set the viewFlags to vAnythingAllowed and vVisible. In other words,
- any type of input is valid and it is visible. For a list of possible flags see
- the documentation.
-
- NOTE: vAnythingAllowed is NOT the same as checking all possible input types
- in NTK. It also involves marking it as Phone & Date & ... you get
- the idea. (Look at the actual values of the constants in the NTK
- Definitions for more info.)
-
- ALSO NOTE: some views use entryFlags instead of viewFlags. Use the same trick
