changing wallpaper

[Guest w0mbat]

Hi,

really sorry if this a stupid question or make little sense, but I am trying to learn how to program my SPV. I have done lots of VB programming and have decided to learn VC++ as a precursor to messing around in eVC++.

All is going well with the aid of a study guide and I am getting more competant with VC++. I am just starting to think about what I would like to write for my SPV using eVC++ that I could use as a first project.

I have decided that i would like to write a really small app that changes the background wallpaper over a specified interval. I am supposing that somehow I can hook into the wallpaper and change that. Is this possible or am I going to have to change the Home Screen xml every paper change to achieve this?

I can do this on windows with no probs at all. I have the Smartphone SDK but am lost as to where to find what functions the SPV supports.

Can anyone help and confused novice?

Thanks,

Neil

errr, the problem is that the wallpaper wont change, the home screen has to effectively be refreshed, so just changing it wont work (as a test copy a file from your pc to the phone and replace the current wallpaper and you'll notice it wont actually change onscreen. the only way i can see this working is a custom plugin, but, even then i'm not sure its possible (cos of the way plugins are layed out on homescreens, what with only 1 plugin per line etc)
