Hi friends,

 

Is there any way to get the text of hidden items in a system tray and to click on the hidden icon?

 

The following code gets text of all visible items but I want to get the text of the hidden icons too.

 

Please help. 

 

Pooja.

#include <GuiToolBar.au3>
 
$hSysTray_Handle = ControlGetHandle('[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]', '', '[Class:ToolbarWindow32;Instance:1]')
If @error Then
Msgbox(0, "Error", "Couldn't get the Tray handle")
Exit
EndIf
; Get systray item count
Local $iSystray_ButCount = _GUICtrlToolbar_ButtonCount($hSysTray_Handle) ;get button count
If $iSystray_ButCount = 0 Then
Msgbox(0, "Error", "No tray icons")
Exit
EndIf    ; Look for wanted tooltip
$sTrayicons = $iSystray_ButCount & " Tray Icons are: " & @CRLF
For $iSystray_ButtonNumber = 0 To $iSystray_ButCount - 1 
$sTrayicons = $sTrayicons & _GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText($hSysTray_Handle, $iSystray_ButtonNumber) & @CRLF
Next
 
Msgbox(0, "Tray icons", $sTrayicons)

PoojaKrishna,

You can always get the hideen icons to display as I show here. :)

P.S. When you post code please use Code tags - see here how to do it. Then you get a scrolling box and syntax colouring as you can see above now I have added the tags. ;)

Hi,

Thanks M23 but it does not work on my machine for hidden icons. Actually I'm trying to click on the TeamViewer icon on my machine. It works fine if the icon is active on the tray bar. Mine is a Win 7 machine.

It returns the following message for hidden icon.

---------------------------

Error
---------------------------
Icon not found in system tray
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

PoojaKrishna,

Have you checked the CLASS/INSTANCE values for the "show hidden icons" button as suggested in the post to which I linked? If they are not the same on Win7 then it is not surprising that the code does not work. ;)

Use the AutoIt Window Info tool and see what you get as a return. :)

Please see the code added below. Edited for TeamViewer. It clicks on the show button but couldn't get the TeamViewer icon.

#include <GuiToolBar.au3>
Global $hSysTray_Handle

_Show()

Func _Show()
    
    $hTaskBarHandle = WinGetHandle("[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]", "")
    ControlClick($hTaskBarHandle, "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")
    sleep(1000)
    
    $iSysTray_ButtonNumber = _Get_Systray_Index("TeamViewer") ; Put your traytip text here as before <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    If @error Then
        MsgBox(16, "Error", "Icon not found in system tray")
        Exit
    EndIf
    ; Action icon <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    _GUICtrlToolbar_ClickButton($hSysTray_Handle, $iSysTray_ButtonNumber, "right")


EndFunc   ;==>_Show

Func _Get_Systray_Index($sText)

    ; 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  tooltip
    For $iSysTray_ButtonNumber = 0 To $iSysTray_ButCount - 1
        If StringInStr(_GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText($hSysTray_Handle, $iSysTray_ButtonNumber), $sText) > 0 Then ExitLoop
    Next

    If $iSysTray_ButtonNumber = $iSysTray_ButCount Then
        Return SetError(1, 0, -1) ; Not found
    Else
        Return $iSysTray_ButtonNumber ; Found
    EndIf

EndFunc   ;==>Get_SysTray_Index

Do you at least get the icon count returned? :huh:

PoojaKrishna,

So the hidden icons are in a pop up window and not in the systray - hardly surprising that they do not get recognised by the code. ;)

Let us see if we can recognise the pop up:

#include <WinAPI.au3>

$hTaskBarHandle = WinGetHandle("[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]", "")
ControlClick($hTaskBarHandle, "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")

; You may need to adjust this
Sleep(1000)

; Run this once the popup has appeared
$aPopUp_List = _WinAPI_EnumWindowsPopup()
If IsArray($aPopUp_List Then
    _ArrayDisplay($aPopUp_List, "Pop up list")
Else
    MsgBox(16, "Error", "Non-standard Pop-up")
EndIf
What do you get in the array (if indeed you get one)? :huh:

Melba, starting from this i'm sure you can find a better way:

; johnmcloud - 2014
#include <GuiToolBar.au3>

Global $vIsHidden

$vIsHidden = RegRead("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer", "EnableAutoTray")
If $vIsHidden == 1 Then
    Run("rundll32.exe shell32.dll Options_RunDLL 5")
    WinWait("[CLASS:CabinetWClass]", "")
    ControlClick("[CLASS:CabinetWClass]", "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:3]")
    ControlClick("[CLASS:CabinetWClass]", "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")
EndIf

$hSysTray_Handle = ControlGetHandle('[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]', '', '[Class:ToolbarWindow32;Instance:1]')
If @error Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Couldn't get the Tray handle")
    Exit
EndIf

Local $iSystray_ButCount = _GUICtrlToolbar_ButtonCount($hSysTray_Handle) ;get button count
If $iSystray_ButCount = 0 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "No tray icons")
    Exit
EndIf

MsgBox(0, "Tray icons", $iSystray_ButCount)

If $vIsHidden == 1 Then
    Run("rundll32.exe shell32.dll Options_RunDLL 5")
    WinWait("[CLASS:CabinetWClass]", "")
    ControlClick("[CLASS:CabinetWClass]", "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:3]")
    ControlClick("[CLASS:CabinetWClass]", "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")
EndIf

The EnableAutoTray show-hide all icon in the traybar, the problem is i don't have found any way to refresh Explorer without closing it, envupdate, some _SendMessage etc. but nothing work so i have used the ControlClick way in the GUI

Hi Melba,

Sorry, it couldn't find any popup windows. The following code returns the count as 0. An edited version of your code.

#include <WinAPI.au3>
#include<Array.au3>

$hTaskBarHandle = WinGetHandle("[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]", "")
ControlClick($hTaskBarHandle, "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")

; You may need to adjust this
Sleep(5000)

; Run this once the popup has appeared
$aWindows = _WinAPI_EnumWindowsPopup()
msgbox(0,"", $aWindows[0][0])
    For $i = 1 To $aWindows[0][0]
        $text = "Window Handle: " & $aWindows[$i][0] & @LF
        $text &= "Window Class: " & $aWindows[$i][1] & @LF
        $text &= "Window Title: " & WinGetTitle($aWindows[$i][0]) & @LF
        $text &= "Window Text: " & WinGetText($aWindows[$i][0]) & @LF
        $text &= "Window Process: " & WinGetProcess($aWindows[$i][0])
        MsgBox(0, "Item " & $i & " of " & $aWindows[0][0], $text)
    Next

Yes John I was also planning something like you have posted but I too see no way to refresh the tray after a reg edit.

PoojaKrishna,

My script work because don't write directly in the registry but use the "window" version, did you try it? If there is a way to refresh the tray after the regedit you can only use that way

John,

Your script is working on my machine with some small changes. Thank you so much for your help. I'm planning to add your way until I get a direct way to refresh the tray.

Hi friends,

We can close the explorer after the reg edits and it will auto start again with the new changes. Please see the following code. Working for me.

#requireadmin
Global $vIsHidden ;Reg value of show all tray icons
Global $sKey
 If @OSArch = "X64" Then
    sKey = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER64\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer"
Else
   $sKey = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer"
EndIf
$vIsHidden = RegRead($sKey, "EnableAutoTray")
If @error Then
   Msgbox(0,"Error", "Couldn't read the regkey with error: " & @error)
   Exit
EndIf

Msgbox(0,"EnableAutoTray","Value at Reg: " & $vIsHidden)
If $vIsHidden = 1 Then ;If tray has hidden icons
   RegWrite ($sKey , "EnableAutoTray", "REG_DWORD", "0" )
   If @error Then
   Msgbox(0,"Error", "Couldn't write the regkey with error: " & @error)
   Exit
EndIf
   sleep(1000)
   $PID = ProcessExists("explorer.exe") ; Will return the PID or 0 if the process isn't found.
   If $PID Then ProcessClose($PID)
      sleep(1000)
EndIf

      Restore from tray speed
      By Miliardsto
      Hello. How to make GUI restore from tray with slower speed or effect?
    • MattHiggs
      (solved)First time trying to create custom tray icon menus
      By MattHiggs
      Like stated above, I have never really attempted to create tray icon menus simply due to the fact I find them annoying (if I want to minimize a program, I will click "minimize", but if I want to close it, I don't want it to minimize to task bar and require me to close it there), but thought I should try incorporating them into latest script to at least say that I can use them.  However, I am running into a couple of snags/facts I would like to verify.  1) Since tray icons come with their own "GetMsg" function, I just want to verify that, while the continual paging of the tray menu item would still occur within some kind of loop, can the tray menu item events be declared outside and separate from the GUI events?  eg.
      While 1 $tmsg = TrayGetMsg () $nMsg = GUIGetMsg(1) Switch $tmsg Case $TrayMenu Case $settings1 If TrayItemGetState ( $settings1 ) = 65 Then IniWrite ( $path & "\infostore.ini", "Tray Settings", "No Notifications", "$TRAY_CHECKED" ) ElseIf TrayItemGetState ( $settings1 ) = 68 Then IniWrite ( $path & "\infostore.ini", "Tray Settings", "No Notifications", "$TRAY_UNCHECKED" ) Else EndIf Case $settings2 If TrayItemGetState ( $settings2 ) = 65 Then IniWrite ( $path & "\infostore.ini", "Tray Settings", "On top", "$TRAY_CHECKED" ) GUISetStyle ( BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_THICKFRAME, $WS_TABSTOP), $WS_EX_TOPMOST, $Form1_1 ) GUISetStyle ( BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $DS_SETFOREGROUND), $WS_EX_TOPMOST, $Form2 ) GUISetStyle ( -1, $WS_EX_TOPMOST, $Form3 ) GUISetStyle ( BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_THICKFRAME, $WS_TABSTOP), BitOR($WS_EX_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, $WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE, $WS_EX_TOPMOST), $Form3_1 ) GUISetStyle ( -1, $WS_EX_TOPMOST, $Form4 ) GUISetStyle ( -1, $WS_EX_TOPMOST, $Form5 ) ElseIf TrayItemGetState ( $settings2 ) = 68 Then IniWrite ( $path & "\infostore.ini", "Tray Settings", "On top", "$TRAY_UNCHECKED" ) GUISetStyle ( BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_THICKFRAME, $WS_TABSTOP), 0, $Form1_1 ) GUISetStyle ( $GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, 0, $Form2 ) GUISetStyle ( $GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, 0, $Form3 ) GUISetStyle ( BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_THICKFRAME, $WS_TABSTOP), BitOR($WS_EX_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, $WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE), $Form3_1 ) GUISetStyle ( $GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, 0, $Form4 ) GUISetStyle ( $GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, 0, $Form5 ) Else EndIf EndSwitch Switch $nMsg[1] Case $Form1_1 Switch $nMsg[0] Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ;ProcessClose ( "pastebutt.exe" ) ;ProcessClose ( "PasteButtonhk.exe" ) Exit EndSwitch EndSwitch Wend My second question also involves the above code, but specifically the "Ini" functions which attempt to read a "tray" state flag from an Ini file.  The following is code located at very beginning of script:
      Const $path = @AppDataDir & "\filler" Opt ( "TrayMenuMode", 1 ) OnAutoItExitRegister ( "refresh" ) $nonote = False $TrayMenu = TrayCreateMenu ( "Settings" ) $settings1 = TrayCreateItem ( "Turn off notifications", $TrayMenu ) TrayItemSetState ( -1, IniRead ( $path & "\infostore.ini", "Tray Settings", "No Notifications", "$TRAY_UNCHECKED" ) ) $settings2 = TrayCreateItem ( "Keep Window on top", $TrayMenu ) TrayItemSetState ( -1, IniRead ( $path & "\infostore.ini", "Tray Settings", "On top", "$TRAY_UNCHECKED" ) ) So the idea is that whenever the user "checks" one of the tray icon menu options, its current "state" will be input into the "ini" file, so that the state of the particular tray menu item will be in the same state as the user left it when the script is launched next.  However, this is not occurring: the ini file contains the "state" flag like it should, but the tray menu item remains unchecked at startup.  Furthermore, the checking or unchecking of "setting1" is not being recognized, as the windows' extended styles do not obtain the "Topmost" flag like they should had it worked.  I get the feeling I'm not getting the "states" of the tray menu items correct.  Any advice?

      gui like icon instead of tray icon
      By jvds
      is it possible to create a 16x16 gui and use it instead of the tray icon?
      I have seen http://www.desksoft.com/BWMeter.htm does this, it aloes you you place one of the bandwidth graphics in the tray menu instead of its own icon, I don't know if they have a little gui or use a fancy way to draw an icon in real time but it would be nice to have an interactive icon, or a mini gui like icon you can to things with
      any idea how it is done?

      How to click the menu item in tray icon
      By kcvinu
      Hi all,
      I have searched this forum and found a function named "Get_Systray_Index()" written by Melba23. It is working very good. It can right click on my particular tray icon. But how can select a particular menu item from it. See the attached image. I have tried Send("K") and Send("k") and Send("{DOWN}{ENTER}"). But none of them is working. I don't want to use a mouseclick function. Because i need to use the same script in my laptop too. So please help. Thanks in advance.
