GetNumberOfStrokes ()

 

Function:             Returns the total number of strokes in the current signature. Can be used

                                to detect if a signature is present or not.

 

Arguments:         None.

 

Return Value:     Integer      Decimal value of the number of strokes in the signature.

 

Remarks:             IN VISUAL BASIC, MUST BE CALLED WITH "GET" PREFIX. A

                                signature may only consist of a single stroke. However, the term "stroke"

                                can be interchanged with the term "segment". Since the Topaz tablet

                                is collecting raw tablet data, it cannot determine and does not assume

                                that the data is a signature. The term "stroke" is used to describe the

                                number of segments in the raw data.
