Locking Taskbar on WM6.1 and WM6.5 but also affects windows key??

Question

Hi,

I have devices that run with windows mobile 6.1 and 6.5 and both devices have windows key, a physical key.  So I want to control the clicking operation in the taskbar area.  For WM6.1, the Start/Windows icon is sharing with the taskbar on the top screen but WM6.5, the Start/Windows is at bottom of screen not sharing with the taskbar which is on the top screen.  So whenever I lock the taskbar, the physical windows key also takes same effect, but I really don't want that.  I want the windows key remains as is.  The code below I got from google search.

CWnd* pWnd = CWnd::FindWindowW(TEXT("HHTaskBar"), NULL);
if(pWnd)
{
	pWnd->ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);
	pWnd->EnableWindow(FALSE);
}

 

Answer 1

Hello silentHill,

Can you tell the manufacturer of the devices you work with ? Maybe this manufacturer has a SDK that can control the keyboard the way you want.

Hello silentHill,

It is definitely Microsoft Win32 API.
