Customized On-Screen Keyboards with the .NET Framework

摘要

The need to develop applications that require screen-based inputs has grown steadily in recent years. Developers have traditionally used on-screen data input to let individuals who couldn't use a computer keyboard enter data or make choices, especially in kiosk applications. The rapid growth of tablet and mobile computing devices makes on-screen input more pervasive and useful than ever. One need not look past a local coffee shop or mode of public transportation to find people engrossed in the latest "app" for their mobile phone or tablet device. Given the expectations for continued growth in the mobile computing market, it's not hard to imagine that an understanding of on-screen input methodologies would be of great benefit to any developer.
