Hi all,
I am developing an application to work across different devices including Smartphone WM 5.0, Pocket PC 2003 Second Edition + Square Screen.
The problem is that if I put a simple Textbox on the screen it only shows the border on the Smartphone when I select it (Pocket PC displays it always which is what I want).
Does anybody know how I can display the border all the time
I've tried to draw a rectangle around the Textbox and it does show a border on the right and bottom, but that's about it, and when I select the Textbox it displays the border which is double think on the right and bottom.
Thanks in advance.
Grant.

Hi Manav,
I've tried that, but the border still only shows when you select it.
Thanks,

Hi,
Yea - I tried to draw a rectangle around the textbox in the paint method (overide) + tried to set the Border property to FixedSingle and Fixed3D.
One thing - I am using the emulator within Visual Studio - maybe that's the problem as I haven't tested it on an actual smart phone yet. It works on the PDA emulators and actual PDA device.
Thanks for all your help.
Cheers,
Grant.

Try setting up BorderStyle property on TextBox to Fix3D

Please try this on actual device. It may be a bug in the NETCF implementation, Emulator or the WM Image. We'll file a bug appropriately.

Hi,
That's the problem that I'm trying to solve - I want to display the borders all the time.
If I have n number of Textboxes then I can only see the border for one of them when I click on it, but I want to see the borders for all of them all the time.
Thanks,
Grant.
