I’ve created a Windows CE 5.0 application which runs on a handheld scanner. The scanner has its own (hardware) keypad and almost all input comes from the scanning unit.
Unfortunately whenever the text box receiving the scanned characters is focused the input panel appears at the bottom of the screen, blocking almost a third of the screen space.
Is it possible to deactivate it in my form or in the whole application?
If you’re not doing it manually via the InputPanel control, then I assume you have aygshell in the image and they are being rendered with a WC_SIPPREF control. I’m not certain if you can remove that control manually – I’ve never tried. There may be an agshell function that will allow you to disable/remove it, or maybe some work with the InputPanel for your app can remove it.
