Maps on Windows 10: Drawing Directional Line with a Pen

The Maps app is an essential tool that helps you find locations around the world. With the addition of Windows Ink, it is even easier to plan trips or explain directions to other people. The Maps app will give you step-by-step directions to your destination if you use the Directions tool and the selected path.

The Windows Ink ruler in the Maps' toolbar is a great way to draw straight lines on a map, and you can drag and drop it with one finger or two fingers. If you don't have a stylus like the Surface Pen, you can use your finger as a pen. The only thing you need to do is to click the Touch Writing button in the Windows Ink toolbar and use your finger to draw on the screen.

It automatically inventories the devices, software, users and infrastructure in a Windows or Windows server deployment and produces a readiness report and proposal for executives with hardware and software information. The number of devices, how many devices run Windows and the number of users can be included in the data.

Information the applications users work with and if those applications are compatible with the desktop or server operating system can be included in the readiness report.
