View Full Version : Need to Change Tap-and-Hold (Right-Click) Behaviour

I am creating a custom application based around the Pocket PC platform. I am at a standstill until I can disable tap-and-hold functionality at the Windows Mobile level.

The problem is that my application is written using a development tool that allows the end-user to tap-and-hold to see a context menu. I have to suppress the context menu to prevent users from screwing up the application and thinking that there is a bug. The development tool does not have context menu suppression on its Pocket PC version. I don't mind if tap-and-hold is killed right at the Windows Mobile level since these Pocket PCs will be used for just a single custom purpose.

I was wondering whether there are any registry settings that could suppress or modify tap-and-hold. For instance, perhaps there is a setting for the number of microseconds that the stylus must be held down, before the context menu appears. If so, maybe I could set it to a ridiculously high value?

Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.


Thanks,
