Live Wallpaper Question: Determining Phone State

[Highwinder]

I have written a LWP app, but it has a secondary function that needs to be able to detect when the user has turned off the screen or started up a process that would normally have the OS suspending the LWP engine.

How can I be able to tell when the user has turned off the screen or otherwise done something on the phone that would cause the LWP engine to be automatically suspended?

You should use the VisibilityChanged event. It should tell you when the wallpaper is not visible.

Erel, thanks, I appreciate it. I had it figured out shortly after posting, but forgot to come back in to post the answer. I also ended up using the EngineDestroyed event as well.
