The collection of IStylusAsyncPlugin plug-ins that receive tablet pen data from the RealTimeStylus object.

Examples

This Microsoft Visual C# .NET example is a snippet from a form's Load event handler, which creates a GestureRecognizer, DynamicRenderer, and two RealTimeStylus objects, attaches the objects in a cascaded RealTimeStylus model, and enables dynamic rendering, gesture recognition, and tablet pen data collection through the RealTimeStylus object. The GestureRecognizer object is set to recognize single-stroke gestures and to recognize only the Right, ChevronRight, and ArrowRightApplicationGesture. The primary RealTimeStylus object's WindowInputRectangle property is explicitly set to use the entire control to which the RealTimeStylus object is attached. The form itself implements the IStylusAsyncPlugin interface and is attached to the RealTimeStylus object.

    // Enable the RealTimeStylus, which allows notifications to flow to the plug-ins.
