Do you see the buttons on the form? If not, make sure the 'usable' flag
is set in the resource.
It sounds like in the grand scheme of things, you are accidentally
returning 'true' from your ApplicationHandleEvent() function in the
event chain (check your 'break' statements). Alternatively, your form's
HandleEvent() function might be returning 'true' for handled, when it
should in fact be returning false.
if ( !SysHandleEvent( pEvt ) )
if ( !MenuHandleEvent( pEvt ) )
if ( !ApplicationHandleEvent( pEvt ) )
FrmDispatchEvent( pEvt );
Here, only when the penDown+penUp events pass into FrmDispatchEvent()
will they be converted into a ctlSelectEvent. This happens by the
penDown being passed into FrmHandleEvent() and then CtlHandleEvent(),
where the OS will enqueue a ctlSelectEvent into the loop if the control
has been tapped on.
You should tap on the button, and then trace the penDown event and make
sure it's making it all the way to FrmDispatchEvent() -- I suspect it is
not.
