The requestPresenter() method of the Ink interface returns a Promise that fulfills with an InkPresenter object to handle rendering strokes.

Parameters

param Optional

An InkPresenterParam object that contains the following property:

presentationArea Optional

An Element inside which rendering of ink strokes is confined (the element's border box, to be precise). If param is not included, or presentationArea is set to null, ink rendering is confined to the containing viewport by default.

An error is thrown and the operation is aborted if presentationArea is not a valid Element, or is not in the same document as the associated Ink object.

Example

js

async function inkInit() {
  const ink = navigator.ink;
  let presenter = await ink.requestPresenter({ presentationArea: canvas });

  //...
}
