In Win7 touching edit box on screen then I can get a small picture to let me call osk (on screen keyboard). But in DirectX app all objects are pictures not true edit box, so I get nothing. I can just call osk by ShellExecute, but I want like an usual app in win7. So how can I call osk in DirectX app on touch screen like other app in win7?
