Word Processor

Although the pen does not serve well to create a word-processor document, it can do so for small editing tasks on existing documents, such as for cut-and-paste operations, formatting changes, rewriting small amounts of text, and navigation (scrolling). Thus, the pen in a word-processing application should behave as a pointing device most of the time. The user should be able to select text by dragging the pen and the selection should include an action handle. Double-tapping should display a writing window, as should an "edit" command on a selection action handle. Consider also providing an insertion-point action handle, including an "insert text" command.

When the user creates a new blank document, the application should automatically display an editing window because the user clearly intends to enter new text. For existing documents, the application should provide a means for annotating the text, either by inserting scribble notes (like Post-it™ notes) or by inking directly on top of the text.

Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More »
