KIOSK mode in Pocket PC
-
I would like to develop a a full screen application in Pocket PC. The meaning of "full screen" is the app. will cover the whole physical screen including "Start" button of Windows in PPC. Sorry, i 'm new to PPC programming. I saw a PPC application in market. Once the PPC is switch on, it will open the app. directly with full screen. Then the user are not able go to windows but only the program itself. The 4 shortcut button is dedicated for the functions of the application. Thus, the users are no chance to access windows setting, other programs and so on. they called it as KIOSK mode...is there any sample code inteads of buying "Spb Kiosk Engine". :confused: I tried to search in google but most of the website introduce "Spb Kiosk Engine". Any API or Library for VB.net for KIOSK? or any sample code? Thanks for help.

You could try using the GAPI (Game API) for Pocket PC. It allows you to take control of the entire screen as well as redirect function keys to the program if you define it to do that. You can check out some information on it at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/DevGuideSP/html/sp__gamex_using_the_gapi_run_times.asp[^] Maybe that will help a little bit

Try experimenting with SHFullScreen and don't forget to move the windows. Cheers, Yongki C. Andyka Jong www.adisasta.com Don't know much < I, don't care much > I, while I am here ... just be happy :)
