If you use NSEvent to get a tablet event, the absoluteX, absoluteY, and absoluteZ will give you position information. I believe that it will be independent of the image view coordinates. You could construct a path from that, and even include the pressure and rotation information as well (though maybe not directly into NSBezierPath).

Hi all,


I am working on to implement a signature feature in a cocoa application. I have an NSImageView, and the goal is for user to sign their names using wacom tablet and the signature would be drawn on the NSImageView. I was wondering if there is an API (from Ink, or wacom ...) that once user is done
drawing on the tablet, I can call the API  to get a NSImage, or
a NSBezierPath so I can draw directly onto the NSImageView ?



I saw there is post on cocoa-dev list,
http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2006/1/26/155365, but I
haven't figured out how to do it in my cocoa application.


At this point, since I haven't figure out how to get the information from
ink, I treated the pen as mouse and checking mouseDown event to draw
a NSBezierPath, which doesn't work well when the pen is outside the
NSImageView.



Thanks , I appreciate any help!


John
