Article

Moves a stroke from this ContextNode object to the specified ContextNode object.

Namespace: Microsoft.Ink
Assembly: Microsoft.Ink.Analysis (in Microsoft.Ink.Analysis.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub ReparentStrokes ( _
    strokes As Strokes, _
    destinationNode As ContextNode _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As ContextNode 
Dim strokes As Strokes 
Dim destinationNode As ContextNode

instance.ReparentStrokes(strokes, destinationNode)

public void ReparentStrokes(
    Strokes strokes,
    ContextNode destinationNode
)

public:
void ReparentStrokes(
    Strokes^ strokes, 
    ContextNode^ destinationNode
)

public function ReparentStrokes(
    strokes : Strokes, 
    destinationNode : ContextNode
)

Parameters

strokes
Type: Microsoft.Ink.Strokes

The Strokes to move.

destinationNode
Type: Microsoft.Ink.ContextNode

The ContextNode object that the stroke should be moved to.

Remarks

The specified ContextNode must be one of the following classes: InkWordNode, InkDrawingNode, InkBulletNode or UnclassifiedInkNode. Attempting to move a stroke to any other type of ContextNode results in an ArgumentException.

This method can be called from any ContextNode object, including non-ink leaf ContextNode objects. The specified stroke must be referenced by one of the descendants of this ContextNode object or an ArgumentException is raised.

If either the ContextNode object or the destinationNode is confirmed, an exception is raised.

Examples

The following example uses a ContextNodeCollection, inkDrawingsToCombine that consists of a collection of InkDrawingNode objects. The example combines them into one InkDrawingNode object by using the ReparentStrokes method.

Dim firstNode As InkDrawingNode = CType(inkDrawingsToCombine(0), InkDrawingNode)
Dim drawingNode As InkDrawingNode
For Each drawingNode In inkDrawingsToCombine
    ' Skip first stroke 
    If drawingNode.Equals(firstNode) Then Continue For 

    ' Reparent all strokes to the first node
    drawingNode.ReparentStrokes(drawingNode.Strokes, firstNode)

    ' Delete this node
    drawingNode.ParentNode.DeleteSubNode(drawingNode)
Next

            InkDrawingNode firstNode = (InkDrawingNode) inkDrawingsToCombine[0];
            foreach (InkDrawingNode drawingNode in inkDrawingsToCombine)
            {
                // Skip first stroke 
                if (drawingNode == firstNode)
                    continue;

                // Reparent all strokes to the first node
                drawingNode.ReparentStrokes(drawingNode.Strokes, firstNode);

                // Delete this node
                drawingNode.ParentNode.DeleteSubNode(drawingNode);
            }
