Hi,

in my application I have some dialogs with required user input.
Therefore I need the SIP. As far as I remember I could use the
InputPanel only together with the Menu. That is that I have a little
loss for displaying items on the form.

I am looking for a solution, where I can use the SIP but when the SIP is
disabled no Menu bar or SIP should be visible. Does it work somehow? Or
has anyone a workaround for that?

Thanks

Andreas
 
hi

i need exactly same!!!
(why is everything so hard 2 do in .net what was easy in
embedded?) it rely does not make sense 2 have the sip
depending on a menu bar!!!

It is not necessary to have a menu bar. I tried it on a
PocketPc with windows Mobile 2003(real device). If you try
it on the emulator it will throw an exception. On the real
device works fine. I don't know which one is the bug!!
try
sip=new InputPanel();
sip.Enabled();

Try it on the emulator and it will raise an exception! Try
it on the device and it will works (WM 2003 with CF SP2 -
the one that they retired)


P.S. Any news about the CF SP2 release date???
 
Andreas,

If you need the SIP in a "dialog", but not the main form then just associate
a MainMenu and InputPanel with the dialog's form.

If you are not using a separate form for your "dialog", but rather Panel
controls and only a main form, then the task is a bit trickier, but still
possible.
