I am drawing the bitmaps by WinDrawBitmap().I have icons in my resource file
which I want to draw.I get a pointer to a icon from the resource file, cast
that pointer to a BitmapPtr and use WinDrawBitmap() to draw the Icon.
I have a table with three columns and three rows and I draw one Icon in each
cell of the table, thus showing nine icons at a time. Now if I want to
implement Scrolling functionality to show more than nine icons how do I do it?
Ofcourse the icons i want to show are there in my resource file.
Small piece of source code would be fun.
Thanks,
Hitesh.

One basic approach:
o Use Bitmaps (drawn via WinDrawBitmap()) for the Icons.
o Detect Pen events, looking for a PenDownEvent and a
following PenUpEvent inside the bitmap boundary to
indication that the Icon has been selected and launch
your function.
o Use WinInvertRectangle() to provide feedback when the
PenDownEvent is detected -- restore on the PenUpEvent
and also if a PenMoveEvent indicates that the pen was
moved off the bitmap before the pen was lifted.
o Scroll by clearing and redrawing the form with the
bitmap positions recalculated.

Hi,
I require to show icons in my application like the application icons as we
see
when we start the palm device.When we click on those icons it launches a
specific application.I want to implement the same functionality.(I believe
that the application icons are arranged in a table)
How do I go about this?
I also require to scroll the icons to show other icons in the same way as
we
scroll application icons on the main screen of the palm device.How do i
implement the scrolling function?
I would be very glad if someone could help me solve this.A bit of source
code
would be most welcome.
Thanks,
Hitesh
