Hi friends, I noticed that when I develop an WinForm App, the minimize button appears at corner botton-right. On the devices based on WM6.1 / WM5 this button appears at corner top-right. The customer has an app, to WM6.5, where this minimize button is not being showed on the ES400's screen, I guess that this is occuring because the customer app uses the botton screen, so the minimize botton is overlaped by the app. The worst part, on the devices like as HP GLISTEN, that uses WM6.5 (it seems that they use the previous build of WM6.5 than ES400) this minimize button appears normally on the corner top-right.The PIDION devices, that uses WM6.5, provided an application that did the minimize button appears at corner top-right, without any change on the customer app. Does anybody have any idea or concern tosolve this issue. without any change on the customer app? If I don't have any solution, Motorola will be out of the game in this customer. I'll appreciate any feed back. Regards, Paulo

Not sure if this helps but maybe worth to investigate (I haven't tried this myself): http://www.hjgode.de/wp/2010/10/11/windows-mobile-hide-startbutton-in-w… From a programmatic standpoint this helped a partner to us: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/128737/Mobile-Development-Disable-W…

They should be able to use the "OK" button on the hardware keyboard to close that screen.  Not the best solution, since they will need to know that without having a visual indication on the screen, but it could be a good option until the app can be updated.
