Would anyone happen to know what events are fired when the keyboard is
slid open on devices with sliding keyboards?

thank you
 
You mean as the subtitle on my blog? Because I used to be an MVP and now I
am not - hence "Former MVP"! Click on the link there for more...

I still have not found a way to determine when the sliding keyboard is
open or not. I can't see any events/methods of InputPanel that would
help my Today Screen app determine this.
 
I think you can handle WM_SIZE or WM_SETTINGCHANE events particularly
in the event the sliding of keyboard results in the change of the
display orientation.

There may be numerous things that could cause sizing to change, no? I
am wondering if there might be a registry entry made when the keyboard
is slid open? I know there is one that specifies if a keyboard is
present?

I have to believe that this is possible, since only on the Destop
Explorer screen does the keyboard behave differently. On these screen,
when you push certain letters, a number is outputted so that you can
start dialing from that screen immediately. But on other screen, the
keyboard behaves normally.

I want the keyboard to behave "normally" when the text box in my Today
Item has the focus.
