The silkscreen buttons and the hard buttons are passed as keyDownEvents.
You can find the definitions in Chars.h. When your application gets a
keyDownEvent, return true for any of the "keys" that you want to handle.
This will prevent the system from handling those keys.

Subject: Blocking system icons and buttons
Hi all,
I have a communications application, that can�t be interrupted by the user.
So, I need to block the system buttons and icons of the palm.
I've seen in the documentation that a keyDownEvent should be triggered when
any of them is pressed, so I could verify the eventPtr->data.chr information
to know what key was pressed.
But, I saw in the debugger that the event is not triggered!!! If I press the
Applications icon with a break point in the keyDown event, for example, it
doesn't stop, and goes to Applications!!!
Is the documentation wrong? What's the mistake?
Thanks a lot,
Marcio
