Hi, please tell me if there is a way to make the message boxes and windows (of course some of them are outside the screen area) to force to display in screen area, not to have a part of window outside screen.
The display driver is ddi.dll.
Thanks for your help.

Unless its your windows (from your own app) no.
ddi.dll is the generic name for WM / CE display driver so it tells us nothing of the device.
If you describe your problem in more details, like the exact device, the apps that do not display properly etc. perhaps someone will be able to help.

Ok, the device is a pna running win core 5.0. Apps. that are outside are using gdi (apps which use gx are displayed normally thanks to gapi 4.0), but the others designed for 230x320 are outside (the device has display 320x240).

Ok, I think I understand what you are trying to do - you "opened" a PND and are trying to run PPC apps on it right?
Unfortunately, currently there is no way to help apps that can not adjust to screen resolution by themselves.
PNDs are intentionally limited in features and screen rotation option was removed from the driver.
Unless a program was written to take in to account the screen size (many PPC programs were not) there is no way to force it to the right resolution.
And even if it could be done (there is a theoretical way) it will always be buggy and unstable.
