WM 6.5.1

[ijskast]

HHmm I see what you mean.

How does WinMo determine height? i guess pixels?

Maybe if I take a full resolution screenshot QVGA 240x230 or something like that and then I can use an image editor to determine the size of the new bottom bar?

Or maybe its somewhere in the registry?

ill do some research on this en post back.

It's probably either via GetSystemMetrics, or by getting the handle of the taskbar somehow, and calling GetWindowRect. Please let me know if you find the solution.

I'm looking for someone with WM 6.5.1 who would be willing to test TC Pocket 2.52 Beta 2 before it is publicly released. I added some fixes which may or may not work. The problem is that I don't currently have any ROM to test that myself.

Please contact me by e-mail: beta at ghisler dot com. Thanks!

Ive sent a pm.

Maybe we are able to find a solution and you guys will be prepared for the next release as it comes out.

Kind regards

Just tested the beta version on build 23071 (Tested on a Touch Pro,VGA res), and the buttons look great! No more cropped bottom and missing Ctrl button.

Thanks!!

Bit of a cheeky questions, but as a developer I am wondering how the buttons spacing was sorted out for WM6.5.1?

[ghisler(Author)]

I cheated.

Instead of adding a button bar via CommandBar_AddButtons, I converted the "buttons" to regular menu items with just an image instead of text. You can do this directly in the menu editor of embedded Visual C++. You still need to call CommandBar_AddBitmap to tell Windows Mobile which bitmap contains the button images.

nice one. Thanks that's very useful to know. J

Hi. I just updated to your new beta, and I wanted to say it looks pretty good on MY HTC Fuze(Touch Pro) running 23081, however, when going into landscape mode, the Total commander screen only goes about 2/3rds of the way across the screen.

Strange, can you send me a screenshot (or post it to the Wiki)?

Even though I have been on here a few days, it doesn't let me e-mail you. What is the u.r.l. for Wiki? This forum thinks I tried to post a U.R.L., and it won't let me do that either.
