Hi,

I need some help with capturing stylus coordinates on a SmartDevice. I am
not talking about capturing the x,y on a particular form or application but
it could be anywhere on the device irrespective of which application is
currently running on a mobile device. So it needs to be a utility that runs
in the background and captures the x,y stylus coordinate from the device.
Would appreciate all the help i can get.

Thanks

Sunil
 
So you want a mouse hook. It's not supported in CE. It may be possible to
replace the touchpanel driver to get the info you're after, but it's not
simple.

Why exactly do you need this?

You can simulate a mouse hook by using a timer that checks the mouse
coorindates on a given interval using the Control.MousePosition property.
