Using recConfig Frames

10

This section describes how to use a

recConfig

frame to specify a view's

recognition behavior. Note that the use of view flags is generally the best (and
simplest) way to configure views to recognize common input such as words and
shapes. You need not use a

recConfig

frame unless you require some recognition

behavior that cannot be provided using the view's

viewFlags

and

dictionaries

slots. For example, the use of a

recConfig

frame is required for

views that restrict recognition of individual characters to a specified set, or
implement customized forms of deferred recognition.

This section describes the use of

recConfig

frames for

enabling recognizers

supporting ink text

fine-tuning recognition options

specifying the dictionaries used for recognition

A

recConfig

frame can be used to specify any set of recognizers and

dictionaries, including combinations not supported by the view flag model;
however, views controlled by

recConfig

frames are subject to the same

limitations as all views that perform recognition:

The text recognizer (printed or cursive) made available to all views is determined
by the value of the

letterSetSelection

slot in the system's user

configuration data. Individual views cannot override this system-wide setting.

The system's ability to save learning data is enabled by the value of the

learningEnabledOption

slot in the system's user configuration data.

Individual views cannot override this system-wide setting.

Do not include

letterSetSelection

or

learningEnabledOption

slots in

your

recConfig

frame.
