GetKeyView().viewInkWordScript := func(strokeBundle) begin

// convert the stroke bundle into an ink word

local inkPoly := CompressStrokes(strokeBundle);
local inkWord := inkPoly.ink;
local textSlot := "\uF701";
local stylesSlot := [1, inkWord];
local root := GetRoot();

// create a rich string with the ink word in it

local appendString := MakeRichString(textSlot,

stylesSlot);

// append the rich string to myRichString

if root.myRichString then
root.myRichString := root.myRichString && appendString;
else
root.myRichString := appendString;

// return nil so default handling still happens

nil;
end;

This implementation converts the stroke bundle into an ink word, creates a rich
string that includes the ink word, and appends that rich string to a rich string that is
stored in the root (

myRichString

). The method then returns

nil

, which allows

the built-in handling of the stroke bundle to occur.
