Article
10/19/2012

Moves a stroke from this ContextNode object to the specified ContextNode object.

Namespace: System.Windows.Ink
Assembly: IAWinFX (in IAWinFX.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub ReparentStrokes ( _
    strokes As StrokeCollection, _
    destinationNode As ContextNode _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As ContextNode 
Dim strokes As StrokeCollection 
Dim destinationNode As ContextNode

instance.ReparentStrokes(strokes, destinationNode)

public void ReparentStrokes(
    StrokeCollection strokes,
    ContextNode destinationNode
)

public:
void ReparentStrokes(
    StrokeCollection^ strokes, 
    ContextNode^ destinationNode
)

public function ReparentStrokes(
    strokes : StrokeCollection, 
    destinationNode : ContextNode
)

Parameters

strokes
Type: System.Windows.Ink.StrokeCollection

The StrokeCollection to move.

destinationNode
Type: System.Windows.Ink.ContextNode

The ContextNode object that the stroke should be moved to.

Remarks

The specified ContextNode must be one of the following classes: InkWordNode, InkDrawingNode, InkBulletNode or UnclassifiedInkNode. Attempting to move a stroke to any other type of ContextNode will result in an ArgumentException.

This method can be called from any ContextNode object, including non-ink leaf ContextNode objects. The specified stroke must be referenced by one of the descendants of this ContextNode object; otherwise, an ArgumentException is raised.

If either the ContextNode object or the destinationNode is confirmed, an exception is raised.

Examples

The following example uses a ContextNodeCollection named inkDrawingsToCombine that consists of a collection of InkDrawingNode objects. The example combines them into one InkDrawingNode object by using the ReparentStrokes method.

Dim firstNode As InkDrawingNode = CType(inkDrawingsToCombine(0), InkDrawingNode)
Dim drawingNode As InkDrawingNode
For Each drawingNode In  inkDrawingsToCombine
    ' Skip first stroke 
    If drawingNode = firstNode Then
        GoTo ContinueForEach1
    End If  
    ' Reparent all strokes to the first node
    drawingNode.ReparentStrokes(drawingNode.Strokes, firstNode)

    ' Delete this node
    drawingNode.ParentNode.DeleteSubNode(drawingNode)
ContinueForEach1:
Next drawingNode

InkDrawingNode firstNode = (InkDrawingNode)inkDrawingsToCombine[0];
foreach (InkDrawingNode drawingNode in inkDrawingsToCombine)
{
    // Skip first stroke 
    if (drawingNode == firstNode)
        continue;

    // Reparent all strokes to the first node
    drawingNode.ReparentStrokes(drawingNode.Strokes, firstNode);

    // Delete this node
    drawingNode.ParentNode.DeleteSubNode(drawingNode);
}
