    location As AnalysisRegion _
)
'Usage

Dim location As AnalysisRegion

instance.SetLocation(location)

public void SetLocation(
    AnalysisRegion location
)

public:
void SetLocation(
    AnalysisRegion^ location
)

public function SetLocation(
    location : AnalysisRegion
)

Parameters

location
Type: Microsoft.Ink.AnalysisRegion

The location, in ink coordinates, of the non-ink word on the application document.

Remarks

The location is set in ink coordinates.

Examples

The following example adds a TextWordNode object to an InkAnalyzer, theInkAnalyzer, for a Text control, theTextBox. It converts the location of the Text control from pixel coordinates to ink coordinates. It sets the Data property of the TextWordNode object to be the Text property of the Text control.

' Add nodes to hold the TextWordNode 
Dim writingRegion As WritingRegionNode = _
        theInkAnalyzer.RootNode.CreateSubNode(Microsoft.Ink.ContextNodeType.WritingRegion)
Dim paragraph As ParagraphNode = _
    writingRegion.CreateSubNode(Microsoft.Ink.ContextNodeType.Paragraph)
Dim Line As LineNode = _
    paragraph.CreateSubNode(Microsoft.Ink.ContextNodeType.Line)

' Convert pixel coordinates to pixel coordinates and have the TextWordNode 
' be for the entire TextBox 
Dim topLeft As Point = theTextBox.Location
Dim bottomRight As New Point(theTextBox.Right, theTextBox.Bottom)
Dim thePanelGraphics As Graphics = theNotesPanel.CreateGraphics()
theInkCollector.Renderer.PixelToInkSpace(thePanelGraphics, topLeft)
theInkCollector.Renderer.PixelToInkSpace(thePanelGraphics, bottomRight)
thePanelGraphics.Dispose()

' Create node for the word 
Dim textWord As TextWordNode = _
        Line.CreateSubNode(Microsoft.Ink.ContextNodeType.TextWord)

' Set location 
Dim rectLocation As New Rectangle(topLeft, _
    New Size(bottomRight.X - topLeft.X, bottomRight.Y - topLeft.Y))
textWord.SetLocation(New AnalysisRegion(rectLocation))

' Set the data property to be the text in the textbox.
textWord.Data = theTextBox.Text

// Add nodes to hold the TextWordNode
WritingRegionNode writingRegion = (WritingRegionNode)
    theInkAnalyzer.RootNode.CreateSubNode(Microsoft.Ink.ContextNodeType.WritingRegion);
ParagraphNode paragraph = (ParagraphNode)
    writingRegion.CreateSubNode(Microsoft.Ink.ContextNodeType.Paragraph);
LineNode line = (LineNode)
    paragraph.CreateSubNode(Microsoft.Ink.ContextNodeType.Line);

// Convert pixel coordinates to pixel coordinates and have the TextWordNode 
// be for the entire TextBox
Point topLeft = theTextBox.Location;
Point bottomRight = new Point(theTextBox.Right,
    theTextBox.Bottom);
Graphics thePanelGraphics = theNotesPanel.CreateGraphics();
theInkCollector.Renderer.PixelToInkSpace(thePanelGraphics, ref topLeft);
theInkCollector.Renderer.PixelToInkSpace(thePanelGraphics, ref bottomRight);
thePanelGraphics.Dispose();

// Create node for the word
TextWordNode textWord = (TextWordNode)
    line.CreateSubNode(Microsoft.Ink.ContextNodeType.TextWord);

// Set location
Rectangle rectLocation = new Rectangle(topLeft,
    new Size(bottomRight.X - topLeft.X, bottomRight.Y - topLeft.Y));
textWord.SetLocation(new AnalysisRegion(rectLocation));

// Set the data property to be the text in the textbox.
textWord.Data = theTextBox.Text;
