Customizing the Ink Layer
If a program is non-Aware, whatever you write or draw on your interactive product’s screen appears over the current program on an Ink Layer (sometimes referred to as a transparent layer). Depending on your settings, this Ink Layer can be surrounded by a border and can include Clear, Screen Capture and Close buttons in its upper-right corner.
