Abstract

Examples are disclosed for using and tracking inking input applied to applications of a computing device. An example computing device includes a display, an input sensor configured to receive inking input, a processor, and a storage device storing instructions executable by the processor to receive visual frames from an executing application indicating displayed content for the executing application, and, present displayed ink on a first location of the display based at least on an inking input received via the input sensor. The instructions are further executable to detect a change in the displayed content for the executing application based at least on a comparison of two or more of the visual frames from the executing application, determine a second location of the displayed ink on the display based at least on the change in the displayed content, and present the displayed ink in the second location of the display.
