MyScript iink SDK is a flexible toolkit, and its default configuration can be adjusted to meet different needs. This page lists available options, their default values and usage.

The configuration is to be sent with the configuration message.

General

For the sake of clarity, path of parameter are given. For example export.jiix.bounding-box key match following entry in the body :

"configuration": {
  "export": {
    "jiix": {
      "bounding-box": "..."
    }
  }
}

Content type compatibility

Interactive Ink using WebSocket protocol supports MATH and TEXT recognition in onscreen mode and RAW CONTENT in offscreen mode. See architecture for more details on both modes.

export.jiix.math-label boolean true If true, JIIX export will include the LaTeX label for Math blocks.
export.jiix.ids boolean false If true, JIIX export will include item ids: is useful to get items id, without having all item information: for instance having strokes ids without their full coordinates to avoid an heavy .jiix file.
export.jiix.full-stroke-ids boolean false If true, JIIX export will include the IDs of the full strokes associated with each stroke. This is helpful for determining the origin of a partial stroke.
export.jiix.ranges boolean false If true, JIIX export will include ink ranges of every object [^2]: is useful for having strokes ranges without their full coordinates to avoid an heavy .jiix file.
export.jiix.text.chars boolean false If true, JIIX export will include the detailed characters information.
export.jiix.text.words boolean true If true, JIIX export will include the detailed words information.
export.jiix.text.lines boolean false If true, JIIX export will include the detailed geometric information per line in the text interpretation.
export.jiix.text.structure boolean false If true, JIIX export will include detailed information about the text layout structure for Text blocks.
export.mathml.flavor string standard Defines the flavor you want for MathML export: possible values are standard and ms-office. The latter is recommended if you want to use exported MathML into Microsoft Office suite.
lang string en_US Defines the language used in the editor.
alwaysConnected boolean true Prevents the WebSocket session to be reinitialized every 5 minutes.
renderer.debug.draw-image-boxes boolean false If true, displays the bounding of the images.
renderer.debug.draw-text-boxes boolean false If true, displays the bounding of the words (for text) or characters (for math).
gesture.enable boolean true If true, iink SDK will attempt to detect gestures while writing.

Text

Key Type Default value Description
text.eraser.erase-precisely boolean false If false, the eraser removes any character it touches, else it only erases ink portions within its trajectory.
text.margin.bottom number 10 Margin from the bottom of the part to the bottom of the text bounding box (used for reflow).
text.margin.left number 15 Margin from the left of the part to the left of the text bounding box (used for reflow).
text.margin.right number 15 Margin from the right of the part to the right of the text bounding box (used for reflow).
text.margin.top number 10 Margin from the top of the part to the top of the text bounding box (used for reflow).
text.guides.enable boolean true If true, guides are visible and used for convert and reflow operations.
text.configuration.customResources array of strings [] Name of the custom resources uploaded in the developer space to use. See the custom recognition reference documentation
text.configuration.customLexicon array of strings [] List of custom words to be added to the recognition capabilities. See more about the lexicon.
text.configuration.addLKText boolean true Choice to add to the configured custom resources, words in the lexicon of the current language. Note that, if set to false, only one word will be recognized from the inks you send.

Math

Key Type Default value Description
math.eraser.erase-precisely boolean false If false, the eraser removes any symbol it touches, else it only erases ink portions within its trajectory.
math.margin.bottom number 10 Margin from the bottom of the part to the top of the math expression bounding box (used for conversion operations)
math.margin.left number 15 Margin from the left of the part to the left of the math expression bounding box (used for conversion operations)
math.margin.right number 15 Margin from the right of the part to the right of the math expression bounding box (used for conversion operations)
math.margin.top number 10 Margin from the top of the part to the top of the math expression bounding box (used for conversion operations)
math.customGrammarId string undefined Name of the custom grammar uploaded in the developer space to use. See the custom recognition documentation.
math.customGrammarContent string undefined Custom math grammar text. See the reference documentation to know how to build your custom grammar.

Math solver

Key Type Default value Description
math.solver.angle-unit string deg Unit of the angle computation in the solver: It must be either deg (degrees) or rad (radians)
math.solver.decimal-separator string . The decimal separator symbol (usually . or ,).
math.solver.enable boolean true If true, displays solver result upon conversion.
math.solver.number-format string decimal The way the solver displays the results: decimal (e.g. “2.4”), rational (e.g. “3/2”) or mixed (e.g. “1½”).
math.solver.fractional-part-digits number 3 The number of decimals to display in solver computation result.
math.solver.rounding-mode string half up Rounding method used display solver results: It must be either half up or truncate.
math.solver.fraction-mode string decimal The way solver results shall be displayed: decimal (e.g. “2.4”), rational (e.g. “3/2”) or mixed (e.g. “1½”).
math.solver.options string algebraic Use numeric to let the solver potentially modify the structure of the expression to obtain something computable. Use algebraic to preserve the structure of the input in any case.
math.solver.auto-variable-management.enable boolean false If true, enables the automatic management of variables.
math.solver.auto-variable-management.scoping-policy string closest The scoping policy determines which variable definitions apply to a formula, identified by its block Id, when variables are used across formulas. Possible values are: closest the definition from the closest block in spatial distance is used, last-modified the most recently modified block is used, last-edited, similar to last-modified, but moving a block does not count as a modification.

Raw Content

Key Type Default value Description
raw-content.classification.types string array ["text","shape","drawing"] Controls the list of content types that can be output by the ink strokes classifier. If content types are removed from this list, the corresponding strokes are output as part of the most likely alternative choice among the remaining content types. Possible values are text, shape, math, decoration and drawing.
raw-content.recognition.types string array <empty> Defines the type of recognition that will be performed on this content and the result that will be available in the JIIX export. Possible values are text, math, and shape.
raw-content.eraser.erase-precisely boolean false If false, the eraser removes any symbol it touches, else it only erases ink portions within its trajectory.
raw-content.gestures array of strings [] A string array containing any of the enabled gestures: {scratch-out, underline, insert, join, strike-through, surround}. By default, it is empty, so no gesture is enabled.
