Hey all,
I'm porting a small smartphone application to Windows Mobile 5/6. I am a bit stumped by the following:
The app consists of a small graphical rectangle which is always on top - basically a status bar. It should be painted on top of whatever else the win mobile os does, without stealing the user's key events. Ie. the win mobile OS works as usual with paint, input handling etc in everything it does, only with this custom graphical element overlay always painted on top of part of the screen.
Is there an elegant way of doing this (preferably in managed code?) I thought there might be some way to set up a delegate to globally intercept / extend painting of the screen, but don't really know where to begin.
Best regards,
