How to avoid mouse move on Touch

Here is the best solution I found from now. Don't hesitate to post your own, especially if it is better.

Using SetWindowsHookEx low level mouse event catching (WH_MOUSE_LL) and the fact that all events converted from Touch to Mouse are marked as such (The MOUSEEVENTF_FROMTOUCH flag is set in the event's ExtraInfo, see Microsoft's FAQ) I was able to Globally remove all mouse events comming from the touch panel.

It isn't an ideal solution but it'll do for now in my application when it is running fullscreen (99% of the time as it is a dedicated hardware device).

The second step also good only in fullscreen (That i won't provide code for as it is pretty simple) is just moving the mouse to "safe" position like the bottom right of the screen with SetCursorPos.

If you need the code it is in a Gist on Github and i'll post the current version at the end of this article. To use it :

// As long as the instance is alive the conversion won't occur
var disableTouchMouse = new DisableTouchConversionToMouse();

// To let the conversion happen again, Dispose the class.
disableTouchMouse.Dispose();
