I developed this application that visualizes information contained in a website through windows forms and with the webBrowser component. The application works with the mouse perfectly. When I run on a touch screen, the application simply does not respond to clicks that the user applies.
Here is the current code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Security.Permissions;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace WebsiteWrapper
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public static Timer IdleTimer = new Timer();
const int Tempo = 90000; // 1min - represents the configured time to see if the application is in idle
public Form1()
{
Application.Idle += new EventHandler(Application_Idle);
IdleTimer.Interval = Tempo;
IdleTimer.Tick += TimesUp;
IdleTimer.Start();
InitializeComponent();
Application.Idle -= new EventHandler(Application_Idle);
}
//avoid the page to open external links
private void webBrowser1_NewWindow(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
e.Cancel = true;
}
public void Application_Idle(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (IdleTimer.Enabled)
{
IdleTimer.Start();
}
}
//reload de webBrowser when it reachs 1min of inactivity
public void TimesUp(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.webBrowser1.Navigate("http://www.myWebsite.co.mz/index.php/pt/novo");
}
}
//events messages
[SecurityPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Flags = SecurityPermissionFlag.UnmanagedCode)]
public class LeaveIdleMessageFilter : IMessageFilter
{
const int WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN = 0x00A1;
const int WM_NCLBUTTONUP = 0x00A2;
const int WM_NCRBUTTONDOWN = 0x00A4;
const int WM_NCRBUTTONUP = 0x00A5;
const int WM_NCMBUTTONDOWN = 0x00A7;
const int WM_NCMBUTTONUP = 0x00A8;
const int WM_NCXBUTTONDOWN = 0x00AB;
const int WM_NCXBUTTONUP = 0x00AC;
const int WM_KEYDOWN = 0x0100;
const int WM_KEYUP = 0x0101;
const int WM_MOUSEMOVE = 0x0200;
const int WM_LBUTTONDOWN = 0x0201;
const int WM_LBUTTONUP = 0x0202;
const int WM_RBUTTONDOWN = 0x0204;
const int WM_RBUTTONUP = 0x0205;
const int WM_MBUTTONDOWN = 0x0207;
const int WM_MBUTTONUP = 0x0208;
const int WM_XBUTTONDOWN = 0x020B;
const int WM_XBUTTONUP = 0x020C;
// The Messages array must be sorted due to use of Array.BinarySearch
static int[] Messages = new int[] {WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN,
WM_NCLBUTTONUP, WM_NCRBUTTONDOWN, WM_NCRBUTTONUP, WM_NCMBUTTONDOWN,
WM_NCMBUTTONUP, WM_NCXBUTTONDOWN, WM_NCXBUTTONUP, WM_KEYDOWN, WM_KEYUP,
WM_LBUTTONDOWN, WM_LBUTTONUP, WM_RBUTTONDOWN, WM_RBUTTONUP,
WM_MBUTTONDOWN, WM_MBUTTONUP, WM_XBUTTONDOWN, WM_XBUTTONUP};
public bool PreFilterMessage(ref Message m)
{
if (m.Msg == WM_MOUSEMOVE) // mouse move is high volume
return false;
if (!Program.IdleTimer.Enabled) // idling?
return false; // No
if (Array.BinarySearch(Messages, m.Msg) >= 0)
Program.IdleTimer.Stop();
return false;
}
}
}
I think I'm lost and from so many searches I did on google anything I found that helped me solve the problem. The application runs on a computer with windows 10.
