SmartPhone UI Navigation

[Guest]

Hi,

I am developing a C# app for the SmartPhone 2003. When I press the "up" and "down" arrows of the 5 way button, focus shifts from 1 control to the next. I have a few questions:
How do you control the "tab" order?
Once I get in a listview, how do I get out?

Thank you,
Joe

Hi,
in the project, View>Smartphone Taborder.

As far as I recall from the UI guidelines, a listview should be the only
control on the screen, so once it has focus, that's it. You could probably
handle it by using a menu option to 'restart' or similar, and set focus to
another control on the form

There are some links to a couple of "white papers" that have good
information, too.
