There is no standard backlight API, so unfortunately no.

Setting the brightness of a PocketPC display Boris Stoicov
3/30/2006 7:04:47 PM
Hi all,


I want to programmatically set the brightness of the display of a PocketPC
from my application.
I can do this by changing registry keys but on the different devices the
keys may have different names.
Is there an universal way for doing this. I found an API function
ChangeDisplaySettingsEx but I can't make it work.
Can anybody give me an example of how it is done or may be some other idea I
can try.
Any help would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Boris Stoicov
