R – System.NotSupportedException error in compact framework pictureBox control. How to make a picture button in Compact framework

compact-frameworkwindows-mobile

I'm trying to make a picture button in the compact framework. I made a usercontrol and added a picturebox. I saw you could over ride the text and font for normal windows forms. but don't seem able to do it for compact. It crashes VS2008. Has anyone done this?

Consider using the Smart Device Framework from OpenNETCF. Whenever I've tried to do custom UI and the compact framework has let me down, SDF has usually already "fixed" it.

R – How to add a button to a compact framework DataGrid

You can use the DataGrid's

public Rectangle GetCellBounds(int row, int col);

with

public event EventHandler CurrentCellChanged;
public DataGridCell CurrentCell { get; set; }

public event MouseEventHandler MouseMove;
public HitTestInfo HitTest(int x, int y);

to show a Button (or another control) over the selected cell.

CF .NET requires you to use the signature: Encoding.GetString Method (array[], Int32 index, Int32 count) so try using:

...GetString(b, 0, b.Length);
