Right click on an app in sys tray + select menu +Read the text


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I have a task to right click on a certain application in system tray and be able to select (click) an item(from the context menu) and read the text of the item selected.

I am able to select the application from system tray, but not able to read the text.

Please see the snippet of code attached:

#Include <GuiToolBar.au3>


Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 2)

Global $hSysTray_Handle, $iSysTray_ButtonNumber
Global $sToolTipTitle = "SmartDualMon"

$iSysTray_ButtonNumber = Get_SysTray_Index($sToolTipTitle)

If $iSysTray_ButtonNumber = 0 Then
    MsgBox(16, "Error", "Is SmartDualMon Running?")
    Exit
Else
    Sleep(500)
    _GUICtrlToolbar_ClickButton($hSysTray_Handle, $iSysTray_ButtonNumber, "right")
    Sleep(2000)
    ;_GUICtrlToolbar_ClickIndex($hSysTray_Handle,2)
    Send("{UP}")
    Send("{UP}")
    Sleep(1000)
    $ret = _GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText($hSysTray_Handle,"#32768")
    msgbox(0,"",$ret)
EndIf


Func Get_SysTray_Index($sToolTipTitle)

    ; Find systray handle
    $hSysTray_Handle = ControlGetHandle('[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]', '', '[CLASS:ToolbarWindow32; INSTANCE:1]')
    If @error Then
        MsgBox(16, "Error", "System tray not found")
        Exit
    EndIf

    ; Get systray item count
    Local $iSysTray_ButCount = _GUICtrlToolbar_ButtonCount($hSysTray_Handle)
    If $iSysTray_ButCount = 0 Then
        MsgBox(16, "Error", "No items found in system tray")
        Exit
    EndIf

    ; Look for wanted tooltip
    For $iSysTray_ButtonNumber = 0 To $iSysTray_ButCount - 1
        If StringInStr(_GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText($hSysTray_Handle, $iSysTray_ButtonNumber), $sToolTipTitle) = 1 Then ExitLoop
    Next

    If $iSysTray_ButtonNumber = $iSysTray_ButCount Then
        Return 0 ; Not found
    Else
        Return $iSysTray_ButtonNumber ; Found
    EndIf

EndFunc

In the above code using this API "_GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText()" i am able to read the text of the other application running in the system tray.

Please advice me regarding it.

Thank U...
