Users can choose from two main ways to access the Input Panel in the Windows Vista™ operating system. Using Input Panel programmability is a great way to ensure that Input Panel provides the best possible pen input user experience in your application. Input Panel is the handwriting input tool that lies on top of your application so that you can insert handwritten text into any non-ink enabled Microsoft® Windows® control. If you have ever used a Tablet PC, you have most likely used Tablet PC Input Panel. By using the ITextInputPanel API you can optimize the pen text-input experience on Tablet PCs. Most applications will require some form of text input.
