Please share it with us. I must have used the useless version from the SampleCollapse application. I skipped a lot of stuff about checking if it was a Sony or a Palm. I never could get it to work on a Garmin, but the T|X worked fine.

That SDK is useless, since OS randomly resets DIA state and what is
allowed and not allowed (collapsibility, rotateability, orientation)

as long as you are guaranteed to be running on OS 5.4+ the best way is
to manipulate the fields directly. This causes the DIA to not jerk up
and down. and allows some stranger states to be set in per-form
manner. Eg a form's dia policy can be "dia always up, form always
shown in portrait, rotation disabled collapsing enabled) this means
that when form is shown device will rotate to portrait alwasy, open
dia, but allow collapsing and disallow rotation. The parameters are:

orientation: {port,land,rev port, rev land}
collapsibility: {yes, no}
rotateability: {yes, no}
original dia state: {up, down}

thus making for 32 combinations.

If anyone is actually interested, I can share the info

In the Palm SDK look at the DIA example.  It is not well documented.
Honestly, that is the best example in all of Palm Programming for using the
DIA.  I tried googling for more info.

As for preventing rotation look around.  Just make the forms you want to be
full screen, be full screen.  For the once that you don't want to be full
screen, just display the keyboard.

Is it possible to disable or enable some functions of Dia?
For example, I don't want the device to rotate and I always want to
display some forms in full screen while in another form I always want to
display the keyboard.
How do you set this programmatically?
