touch screen and windows hooks

D

Darren

G'day,
My touch screen on my ETen Glofiish has partially died - it
increasingly distorts the click position radially from the center - ie
the further away from the center, the more accurate the click is and
there is a section in the center where it won't register a click at
all.

However - the distortions are predictable. While I wait for E-Ten to
get back to me to explain where to get the device fixed (which as far
as I can tell so far, could be forever) - I was thinking I could just
write something that does a far more exotic calibration - allowing you
to click on a matrix of something like 256 points on the screen, and
mapping the touch from that..

soooo....
the question -

Is it possible to use a windows hook to hook into the touch screen
messages and modify the location in the message going through? if so
- where would I find info on the messages etc to do that?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm getting sick of having to
remember that to type "t" I have to click just above the "5" on the
keyboard!

Thanks,
Darren
