Gets the globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) for the properties that this InkRecognizer supports.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Ink
Assembly:  Microsoft.Ink.Analysis (in Microsoft.Ink.Analysis.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function GetSupportedProperties As Guid()
'Usage
Dim instance As InkRecognizer 
Dim returnValue As Guid()

returnValue = instance.GetSupportedProperties()
public Guid[] GetSupportedProperties()
public:
array<Guid>^ GetSupportedProperties()
public function GetSupportedProperties() : Guid[]

Return Value

Type: array<System.Guid[]
The globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) for the properties that this InkRecognizer supports.

Remarks

A recognizer can support line metrics, line numbers, confidence levels, and so on. For a complete list of the properties that a recognizer can support, see RecognitionProperty.

Examples

The following example defines a method that returns a string containing information about a specified InkRecognizer. Not shown in this example are the helper methods ListCapabilities and GetPropertyName, which use reflection to return information about specific capabilities and properties of the InkRecognizer.
