Window hiding with Series 60 SDK

0 replies · 1,538 views · Started 19 June 2004

Hi folks,

I am working on a Symbian project where I need to embed a starter app through which I can have a "birds eye" view of the entire mobile phone.

In this regard, I have already implmented a MDL type application which is getting executed whenever I start my Series 60 emulator. From a thread within the MDL, I am launching my designated application through which I intend to retrieve each and every focused text on the phone, and pass it to a TTS engine.

Now the problem that I am facing is in "hiding" the secondary application window which is being launched from the MDL file. In windows, we can simply hide it through "ShowWindow()" Win32 SDK. But how do we do it with Series 60 SDK???

Awaiting ur replies. 😊
Thanks.
