| Onenote 2007 B2TR in a virtual machine, and ink Hi, I've installed XP Tablet Edition in a vmware virtual machine on my Tablet PC, and it's great. I can write notes in Journal and they look just as if I did it natively, and handwriting recognition is working fine. Onenote (B2TR) seems to be behaving differently though. While the handwriting recognition is still working, so I can write notes and search them/convert them to text, they are not anti-aliased. This makes them look unpleasant, and even if I then reload the created note and it's ink under XP Tablet natively the antialiasing still shows (although I would say that it is less noticeable when examining the note under the native install). Of course, because this is a virtual machine, as far as ON is concerned the ink is being written with a mouse, because their is no virtual "pen" device. Aside from lacking pressure sensitivity this doesn't seem to make any difference at all - except in Onenote. Could you explain why Journal displays the ink with the antialiasing, yet Onenote doesn't? Assuming that the issue is related to Onenote believing that it is being written by a mouse, is there some way to make it treat the mouse the same way as it would a pen, or even make it think the mouse is a pen? Thanks for your help! Justyn. |

| RE: Onenote 2007 B2TR in a virtual machine, and ink Going back into my normal, native install of XP Tablet and Onenote I can clearly see that although I select the pen tool, lines drawn with the mouse do not have antialiasing (perhaps "smoothing" is a better word for this) applied, yet lines drawn with the tablet's pen and the pen tool do. It occurs to me that this problem will also affect those who use a graphics tablet to write in Onenote, because they will also technically be drawing with a mouse. Although it is true that the tablet pen input is sampled faster than a mouse, I don't think that is the problem being seen here because it is not experienced in Journal. In fact, when doing the same experiment in I just described in Journal you can see Journal apply the antialiasing (/smoothing) after you finish each stroke, be it with a pen or mouse. Justyn. |
