- TabletKit Description
-
- The TabletKit defines a high level framework and API that facilitates
- communication between applications and graphics tablets. Tablet input
- occurs independent of both the mouse and a specific display area of
- the screen. This framework eases development of applications relying
- on tablet information for digitizing graphs, maps, and other images,
- in addition to free hand drawing, gesture recognition, and many other
- activities requiring a tablet and stylus or cursor as the primary mode
- of input. The TabletKit fully supports features common to many tablets
- including:
-
- - Transmission control settings (baud rate, parity, etc.)
- - Communication protocol settings
- - Alternate report formats and report frequency
- - Resolution and orientation settings
- - Multi-button pressure and angle sensitive stylus
- - 4-button and 16-button cursor
-
- The TabletKit also provides a high-level API for developers that
- allows creation of custom tablet reader bundles for reading data from
- tablets with currently unsupported data formats. The TabletKit
- currently provides two bundles for reading the MM/SummaSketch and
- UIOF/Microgrid binary data formats.
-
- The distribution includes high quality documentation, an example
- drawing application, and source code for the supplied tablet reader
- bundles which utilize the TabletReader API.
