ParoXsitiC Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 The help file says it is only supported in 2000/XP only. However, it seems to be working for me in Windows 7. Is this no longer an issue, or is it intermittent? Have we found a solution thats similar? I think it would be nice to have like an MSN(Windows live) style popup.

Moderators Melba23 Posted July 11, 2010 Moderators Share Posted July 11, 2010 ParoXsitiC,My Help file says:TrayTip works for only Windows 2000/XP or betterso I would expect it to work in Vista/Win7 as they are later versions than W2K/XP.

ParoXsitiC Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 I see my mistake; It says (2000/XP only) at the top of the help file, but then under remarks it says or better. TrayTip -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Displays a balloon tip from the AutoIt Icon. (2000/XP only) Remarks TrayTip works for only Windows 2000/XP or better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted July 11, 2010 Moderators Share Posted July 11, 2010 ParoXsitiC,Good spot. Why not put in a "documentation bug" report on Trac to get it fixed.

WorknMan Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Actually, I can't get TrayTip to work at all in Win7. Just as a test, I copied and pasted the example code right out of the help file: TrayTip("I'm a title", "I'm the message", 5, 1) MsgBox(4096,"", "Press OK to see another tip.") TrayTip("clears any tray tip","",0) TrayTip("", "A different tray tip.", 5) Sleep(5000) It works fine on an XP machine, but only displays the message box on Win7. I even went to taskbar properties and told it to show icon and notifications. Perhaps there is a setting in Win7 that disables balloon tips globally? I saw this: http://www.recipester.org/Recipe:Disable_or_Enable_Balloon_Tips_in_Windows_7_39291042 Tried adding 'EnableBalloonTips' and setting its value to 1, but still nothing?
