When I use the PDA Get Screen Size.vi to get the size of the "screen" of my HP hx4700 my application returns 240x255.
If I run the "HP Asset Viewer" application which basically enumerates
information from the PDA it returns the following information for the
Display:
Color: Yes
Horizontal Pixels: 480
Vertical Pixels: 640
Color Depth: 65536
Display Type: TFT
Panel ID: 0
These numbers "sound" like the "drawable area" (total pixels less top
title bar and bottom input bar) of the screen divided by 2. Which,
coincidentally, is the front panel scale factor used to build the
application for Pocket PC.
In fact, when I build the same application for the x86 emulator images
I have (POCKET PC EMULATOR, and Windows Mobile 2003 SE VGA) I get the
same results, even on the emulator image which is supposed to be VGA
(640x480).
Is there a difference between actual pixels and screen size in the PDA module?
Is this a bug that is fixed in PDA Module 8?
