How to programmatically trigger Flip 3D on Windows?

How do I programmatically trigger Flip 3D on Windows Vista and 7?

Is there an API 开发者_如何学JAVAfor this and if so, what is it called and where can I find the relevant functions? (I need a specific answer, eg a web link to the actual functions, not something generic like "Oh, it's in DirectX.")

On a related node, I have a Logitech mouse that has a "Document Flip" button that invokes Flip 3D (and then I can press up/down keys to page through the results.) I am curious if they are using an official Windows API or if there is some low level hackery going on.

you need to run a function from dwmapi

Sadly there is no proper funktion name only the ord-number 105

You can try this by executing %WinDir%\System32\rundll32.exe dwmapi #105 from Run-dialog or cmd.

edit ive found out the Windows' API GetProcAddress Function accepts ord-numbers (the 105) as second parameter as well as proper name

lpProcName [in]
The function or variable name, or the function's ordinal value. If this parameter is an ordinal value, it must be in the low-order word; the high-order word must be zero.

so use this code

typedef vois (__cdecl *FlipProc)();
HINSTANCE hDwmApi = LoadLibrary(TEXT("dwmapi.dll"));
FlipProcAdd = (FlipProc) GetProcAddress(hDwmApi, (LPCSTR)105);
(FlipProcAdd)();
