Hi-

Does anyone know how to enter fullscreen mode via managed code on CE
4.2 first edition?

Thanks

What exactly is "fullscreen mode"? If you mean how do you hide the taskbar
and resize your app, I'd suggest searching the archives for "kiosk mode" as
it will provide an example of finding and hiding the taskbar (it's a
findwindow call with HHTaskBar IIRC, then ShowWindow folled by resizing your
own Form).

If your device supports some "other" mechanism of fullscreen display, then
you'd want to check with the OEM.

Hi,

Hide the taskBar from C# or manually in taskbar properties, check
hide.
Then in your Form set the following properties:
- controlBox to false
- formBorderStyle to None
- MinimiseBox to False
