Qt4 and windows vista handwriting feature

[Gnurou]

Hello everybody,

Some of my users using Windows Vista on a tablet PC complained they could not input text using Vista's handwriting recognition feature. Apparently, they can do it with anything by my program. The popup icon that allows to enable handwriting just does not appear. I'm just using standard Qt widgets there - QLineEdit and so on.

Edit: after some investigation, it appears that the input by itself works - what does not is that when using a pen, a popup icon is supposed to appear on top of input fields, to allow easy access to the input panel. This is the part that does not work as expected.

I do not use Windows myself, so I cannot track this problem easily. But I'm wondering if anyone would know why this so - if there something to enable in order to use the handwriting feature in Qt apps?

Thanks for any information,
Alex.
