Gets a Rectangle object that represents the size and location of the soft input panel (SIP).

Namespace: Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms
Assembly: Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms (in Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property Bounds As Rectangle
    Get
'Usage
Dim instance As InputPanel
Dim value As Rectangle

value = instance.Bounds

public Rectangle Bounds { get; }

public:
property Rectangle Bounds {
    Rectangle get ();
}

member Bounds : Rectangle

Property Value

Type: System.Drawing.Rectangle
An object that represents the size and location of the SIP.

Remarks

The Bounds property always returns a width of 240 pixels and a height of 80 pixels for Pocket PCs, regardless of whether the SIP is enabled.

Note

A few Pocket PC devices return a height greater than 80 pixels for the SIP. Use the Bounds property to determine the height.

Examples

The following example uses the EnabledChanged event to decrease the height of a tab control when the SIP is enabled. It returns the tab control to its original height when the SIP is disabled. The example uses the Bounds property to display the size and location of the SIP. This example is part of a larger example provided for the InputPanel component.

Private Sub InputPanel1_EnabledChanged(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles InputPanel1.EnabledChanged
 If InputPanel1.Enabled = False Then

  ' The SIP is disabled, so set the height of the tab control
  ' to its original height with a variable (TabOriginalHeight),
  ' which is determined during initialization of the form.
  VisibleRect = InputPanel1.VisibleDesktop
  TabControl1.Height = TabOriginalHeight
 Else
  ' The SIP is enabled, so the height of the tab control
  ' is set to the height of the visible desktop area.
  VisibleRect = InputPanel1.VisibleDesktop
  TabControl1.Height = VisibleRect.Height
 End If

 ' The Bounds property always returns a width of 240 and a height of 80
 ' pixels for Pocket PCs, regardless of whether or not the SIP is enabled.
 BoundsRect = InputPanel1.Bounds

 ' Show the VisibleDesktop and Bounds values
 ' on the second tab for demonstration purposes.
       VisibleInfo.Text = String.Format("VisibleDesktop: X = {0}, " _
       & "Y = {1}, Width = {2}, Height = {3}", _
       VisibleRect.X, VisibleRect.Y, _
       VisibleRect.Width, VisibleRect.Height)
       BoundsInfo.Text = String.Format("Bounds: X = {0}, Y = {1}," _
          & "Width = {2}, Height = {3}", BoundsRect.X, BoundsRect.Y, _
          BoundsRect.Width, BoundsRect.Height)
End Sub

private void inputPanel1_EnabledChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (inputPanel1.Enabled == false)
    {
        // The SIP is disabled, so set the height of the tab control
        // to its original height with a variable (TabOriginalHeight),
        // which is determined during initialization of the form.
        VisibleRect = inputPanel1.VisibleDesktop;
        tabControl1.Height = TabOriginalHeight;
    }
    else
    {
        // The SIP is enabled, so the height of the tab control
        // is set to the height of the visible desktop area.
        VisibleRect = inputPanel1.VisibleDesktop;
        tabControl1.Height = VisibleRect.Height;
    }

    // The Bounds property always returns a width of 240 and a height of 80
    // pixels for Pocket PCs, regardless of whether or not the SIP is enabled.
    BoundsRect = inputPanel1.Bounds;

    // Show the VisibleDestkop and Bounds values
    // on the second tab for demonstration purposes.
    VisibleInfo.Text = String.Format("VisibleDesktop: X = {0}, " +
        "Y = {1}, Width = {2}, Height = {3}", VisibleRect.X,
        VisibleRect.Y, VisibleRect.Width, VisibleRect.Height);
    BoundsInfo.Text = String.Format("Bounds: X = {0}, Y = {1}, " +
        "Width = {2}, Height = {3}", BoundsRect.X, BoundsRect.Y,
        BoundsRect.Width, BoundsRect.Height);
}
