Compact Framework: Creating invisible clickable regions?

Hi,

There are several things in my form that I'd like to make clickable (tappable) in a form (Compact Framework 1.0, in C#).

Is there a way to create a control that's simply invisible (has no paint event), but captures tap events, regardless of what multiple static controls are underneath it? (i.e. bitmaps, labels, backgrounds, etc)?

This would be very useful to me for many reasons, since not all CF 1.0 controls support the Click event.

The only way to achieve that would be to use the ApplicationEx from SDF and create a MessageFilter that'd get all mouse messages. Take a look at this sample:
