MyScript iink SDK lets you consistently interact with different types of content via a unified API. This page lists supported content types and outlines the potential specificities of each of them.
MyScript iink SDK currently supports the following content types:
"Text") - Simple block of multi-line text (including possible line breaks), responsive reflow. It shows guides by default but these can be
deactivated (for instance when processing ink from an outside source that is not aligned on the guides)."Math") - Block supporting one or more equation."Diagram") - Block supporting a diagram, with automatic text/non-text distinction and dynamic reorganization possibilities."Drawing") - Block hosting a collection of strokes without any interpretation. Useful for scribbles and drawing activities.Text Document ("Text Document") - Container hosting an ordered collection of text, math, diagram, raw content and drawing blocks.
It is a vertical, dynamic and responsive stream of structured content.
Raw Content ("Raw Content") - Block hosting digital ink with no explicit segmentation into text, math, diagram or other items which semantics is known by iink SDK.
Content is analyzed by MyScript iink SDK to retrieve ink corresponding to text blocks from the rest of the content.
In non-text blocks, according to its configuration, MyScript iink SDK can further distinguish shapes from other blocks.
Raw Content is key to implement the following use cases:
For an overview of what is possible, refer to the interactive features page. In addition the “Raw Content” configuration section lists what you may tune.
The string value provided between brackets is case-sensitive and identifies the type in the model in an unambiguous way.
