Capture Today screen before app starts.


Capture Today screen before app starts.

Postby Slither2006 » Jan 9, 2008 @ 12:04pm

Hi I'm new to Edge and c++ but have grasped the main concepts for my needs. I'm very happy with the speed and performance also it's really a marvel!

One thing I wish to do is apply a fade in transition when my program starts on my Windows Mobile 2003 and WM05 device.

I would like to do it this way. Capture the today screen and then use that as the background surface while I blend my program animation surface over the top until the Today screen surface has completely blended and all you can see is my animation surface.

Any help would be great thanks!

Ok it looks like the reply may take a while.

But for those of you who know other things. Can you please help me with this instead?

I'd like to copy a small portion of an E2DSurface to a smaller E2DSurface.


Anybody?

I'm thinking about purchasing the Full license of Edgelib but the forums seem a bit quite :( (having second thoughts now)

Hi,

You can use the EFL_SCREENCAPTURE flag of the EDGELIB configuration (in the OnFrameworkConfig callback) to copy the screen contents in the backbuffer when your application starts.

Then you can make your own wipe between the picture in the backbuffer and the screen image of your application.

Excellent! Thanks for the advice! I'll get it fixed up as soon as I get home.


I may need a code sample for the screen caputre functionality but will first try my best before bugging you guys.

Regards,

Slither2006.

Hi,

is this correct, that on UIQ2 and UIQ3 this method to capture the display memory (of the system) does not work?

Hi Yucani,

You're correct, this feature is only supported on Windows Mobile.
