TabletPC input possible?

Post by mrmoderate » Thu Jun 23, 2011 11:48 am

I'm running Windows XP Pro, Tablet PC Edition. I want to know if I can use my stylus as an input device.

I want to create a flashcards application. The subject matter is primarily Math, and so using a keyboard is not practical. For example, describing a sequence or series using limit notation with a Greek, uppercase Sigma is either impractical or impossible. Even not-very-complex fractions become unwieldy very quickly, requiring quantities within quantities within....

I don't need specific instructions, just a lead to follow in the online help should suffice. I'll ask further questions if that's not enough.

Also, same basic question, but for audio input, not stylus input. Again, a help lead would be sufficient for now.

If either of my questions are unclear, please post a statement to that effect, and I'll rephrase.

Thanks much.

To be honest I'm not sure what you are asking. Does this have anything to do with Macro Scheduler? Doesn't a stylus just trigger mouse events anyway? i.e. to all intents and purposes it's just a mouse no? And from a software point of view there is no difference and nothing different to do.
