Image Button on PPC [message #454660]

I am painting my own Image Button on Pocket PC. All is well until the
button is tapped (selected). The image and text that I painted disappears
- it seems that the button paints itself (blank button - no text no image)
over my painting of the image and text. When it gains or looses focus all
is well - paints the border without painting over my painting of the image
and the text.

Is there a different painting order when a button is selected as opposed
to when a button gains/looses focus?

Button painting is platform specific. For example, the button is most
likely drawing in mouse down and never issuing a paint event.

It has to be issuing a paint at some point because it does draw my image
and text except on button selection where it redraws itself based on some
platform specific/native criteria...I guess...???

On Windows, the operating system doesn't have to draw in WM_PAINT. From
memory, Windows buttons draw in WM_LBUTTONDOWN (and elsewhere). If you are
planning on drawing ontop of Windows, you'll have to draw the same places
that Windows does.
