Would it work for your application to detect the proximity event instead of if the user has a tablet attached? Maybe detect the first time the user puts the pen to tablet and flip your state then?


I have an app that does something similar to this and getting the proximity event works well.

I have an application that I have been testing with Ink, and it works fine, except that you need to switch between the "Write Anywhere" mode and the cursor mode quite often, so when the user has a tablet connected, I want to show them an extra item (probably on the context menu) to change modes.

In the documentation I see lots of stuff about responding to events etc, but I can't see the things I am looking for:

1. How do I know that they have a tablet connected?
2. How do I tell Ink to switch from Write Anywhere on to off and back again?


I am targeting 10.3.9+

Thanks
