I don't believe this is expected behavior - it should be fixable. Do you set your form constraints and custom DIA policy in your form event handler or the main event handler? Anyway, the PalmSource developer knowledge base has a "recipe" for using the PIN Manager, along with a sample application project for various platforms called "SampleCollapse_R2.zip". Do a search for DIA and you should find the article/recipe. Check this source out and it follow its lead on your PIN calls and it should solve your problems. Note that the order of the calls is fairly important too. WinSetConstraintsSize() apparently needs to be called first - I noticed several problems on the Garmin Ique 3600 when I didn't do this. Hope this helps! -Robert -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
