Hi

I've added new functionality to Toast:

  1. Control the Toast up and down times.
  2. Allow Toast to be centered on the Taskbar in addition to appearing at the end.
  3. Added animation types Roll, Center, and Blend. Types Center and Blend are always centered on the Desktop/work area.

These features are specified with a call to a new function _Toast_Set_Timers_Animation().

Toast_Examples.au3 has been updated to demonstrate the added features, and each Toast example has a 'header' in the file so desired examples can be located quickly.

Comments are appreciated :geek:

Cannot wait to try these new features out - thanks...

You have extra =.... easy fix though

"D:ScriptsToastToast.au3"(740,76) : error: syntax error

            If $iToast_Taskbar_Pos_Temp = $CENTER_OF_TASKBAR Then $aToast_Data[0] = /=

jrsofsd,

Nothing personal, but I am going to split off the posts dealing with your version of the Toast UDF into their own thread later today. That way I can keep my version separate and there will be no confusion. :)

M23,

Thanks for the great utility. It wasn't my intention to maintain a sepatate version of Toast but it it IS your code! It would be immensely helpful if you could notify me when a new version of Toast is avaiable. :geek:

 

BTW, would it make sense to remove the Return statement at the end of the 'Case Default' for the '$vJust' parameter in _Toast_Set() (line 101)? Since setting '$vJust' to 'Default' sets all remaining parameters to their defaults, a statement like this:

_Toast_Set(Default, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, 3)

would set ths first 7 parameters to their defaults and specify that the Taskbar is on a secondary monitor to the left. Just a thought...
