Input Scopes (Compact 2013)
3/28/2014
By using the Input Scope feature in Windows Embedded Compact, you can create an application that defines the type of content that each edit control receives for each input field in the UI. Input Scope supports a faster and more accurate input experience for a user.
When a window initializes, the application calls the Input Scope API and sets InputScope enumerated values for each input field.
When a user sets the focus to an input field, the input field notifies the active input method. Then, the input method queries the InputScope values set for the current input field and adjusts the input mode.
This feature can be used with a common control that has a window handle (HWND). For more information, see CreateWindowEx or Common Controls Reference.
