Does anyone know how (or tried to, or succeeded in) integrating/using Windows 10 stylus/inking support in Delphi (Seattle or Berlin, say)?

As mentioned for example here:

From a user perspective in Anniversary edition there's been some refinements as well apparently, not sure if this also applies to developer API's...:

    I've tried (but so far failed). I think the pen technology is part of the WinRT API).

    Steve Maughan Yes, and WinRT API's supposed to be supported fairly well (?) by Delphi Berlin? (See for example community.embarcadero.com - Windows 10 Anniversary Update and RAD Studio, I'm not running Berlin yet, nor really dug around myself...) Thanks for commenting.

    Marco Cantù mentions WinAPI.UI.Input.Inking in his slides for his "Windows 10 Anniversary Edition Support in Delphi" webinar. According to his slides the interface unit could be in SOURCE\RTL\WIN\WINRT. Will have a look.

    By the way: Dear Marco Cantù, is there a recording of this webinar somewhere?
