listeningSystem.Boolean. Whether or not the InkOverlay object has interest in a known application gesture. >

> > > > > > > > > > > >
trueThe InkOverlay object has interest in the application gesture.
falseThe InkOverlay object does not have interest in the application gesture.

Exceptions

COMException Leave Site:
ObjectDisposedException Leave Site: The InkOverlay object is disposed.

Remarks

To enable or disable all application gestures in one call, use the AllGestures value of the ApplicationGesture enumeration.

To return a value that indicates whether the InkOverlay object has interest in a particular application gesture, call the GetGestureStatus method.

Examples

[C#]

This C# example sets the interest status of each ApplicationGesture to false on the passed-in InkOverlay object, theInkOverlay.

using Microsoft.Ink;
// . . .
// Set all of the ApplicationGestures' status
// to false on the InkOverlay object.
private void ClearAppGestures(InkOverlay theInkOverlay)
{
    ApplicationGesture test = ApplicationGesture.NoGesture;
    Array theGestures = System.Enum.GetValues(test.GetType());
    foreach (ApplicationGesture theGesture in theGestures)
    {
        theInkOverlay.SetGestureStatus(theGesture, false);
    }
}
                

[VB.NET]

This Microsoft® Visual Basic® .NET example sets the interest status of each ApplicationGesture to false on the passed-in InkOverlay object, theInkOverlay.

Imports Microsoft.Ink
' . . .
' Set all of the ApplicationGestures' status
' to false on the InkOverlay object.
Private Sub ClearAppGestures(ByVal theInkOverlay As InkOverlay)
    Dim test As ApplicationGesture = ApplicationGesture.NoGesture
    Dim theGestures As Array = System.Enum.GetValues(test.GetType())
    Dim theGesture As ApplicationGesture
    For Each theGesture In theGestures
        theInkOverlay.SetGestureStatus(theGesture, False)
    Next
End Sub
