I’m currently developing a custom Lync client. I need full control over the UI.
If possible could anyone provide a list of all the supported features of Lync client’s SuppressionMode API?

i.e. Desktop sharing? File Transfer? Docking of the VideoChannel? Instance messaging? etc..

— Edit: New info

As it says here in the link below:

With these lower-level API’s we can implement our own client but it has now become a much larger task. Things that were for free, are now very big implementations we must develop ourselves rather than customize:

Does this mean that there is a way to use\access these advanced API features, and what’s left is the development of the custom user controls?!

    I don’t know of any definitive list of supported features, but I can comment based on work i’ve done in the past:

    Supported in UI Suppression mode:

    • IM
    • Presence
    • Audio (to Lync and PSTN)
    • Video (A video window can be docked into your WPF/WinForms app)
    • Contact Management
    • Accessing A/V devices
    • Setting Note
    • Conferencing (IM/AV)
    • Context Channel

    NOT supported in UI Suppression mode:

    • Sharing (Desktop/Application/Powerpoint/Whiteboard/Poll/File)

    I’m sure there are other features I’ve left out – if theres anything specific you’re interested in, leave a comment and i’ll update the answer.

    I don’t really understand the second part of your question i’m afraid.
