tonycst Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Try this on windows 8 or 10. Even when script is long gone, countless tray tips keep popping out. So annoying. TrayTip ("Title","Hello1",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello2",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello3",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello4",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello5",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello6",1) They will stack one on top of another instead of closing previous and showing the current one. Not to mention the delay is no longer working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
water Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) According to the help file: "To clear a balloon tip that is being displayed, call another tip with an empty text string (and any title)." So what do you get when you set an empty tray tip at the end of your script? TrayTip ("Title","Hello1",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello2",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello3",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello4",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello5",1) TrayTip ("Title","Hello6",1) TrayTip ("Title","") Edited August 20, 2017 by water My UDFs and Tutorials: Spoiler UDFs:Active Directory (NEW 2022-02-19 - Version 1.6.1.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiExcelChart (2017-07-21 - Version 0.4.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Example ScriptsOutlookEX (2021-11-16 - Version 1.7.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiOutlookEX_GUI (2021-04-13 - Version 1.4.0.0) - DownloadOutlook Tools (2019-07-22 - Version 0.6.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - WikiPowerPoint (2021-08-31 - Version 1.5.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiTask Scheduler (NEW 2022-07-28 - Version 1.6.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Wiki Standard UDFs:Excel - Example Scripts - WikiWord - Wiki Tutorials:ADO - WikiWebDriver - Wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamtheky Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Traytip literally does nothing on my Win10 16257.rs_prerelease. So I have the opposite problem, but would come to the same conclusion and just use Melbas Toast UDF. ,-. .--. ________ .-. .-. ,---. ,-. .-. .-. .-. |(| / /\ \ |\ /| |__ __||| | | || .-' | |/ / \ \_/ )/ (_) / /__\ \ |(\ / | )| | | `-' | | `-. | | / __ \ (_) | | | __ | (_)\/ | (_) | | .-. | | .-' | | \ |__| ) ( | | | | |)| | \ / | | | | | |)| | `--. | |) \ | | `-' |_| (_) | |\/| | `-' /( (_)/( __.' |((_)-' /(_| '-' '-' (__) (__) (_) (__) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonycst Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 What is prerelease ? Its out long time ago. I dont know what is Toast UDF . TrayTip needs to work as intended. I assume there were changes in the OS that autoit devs are not aware of regarding the traytip because timeout setting has absolutely no effect.

Skysnake Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Hi @tonycst, you are obviously annoyed. Would you mind explaining more? I run a variety of WinXP, Win7, Win8 and Win10 computers. TrayTips are used for a variety of "user updates" and mine all seem to work as expected. Am I missing something? Skysnake Skysnake Why is the snake in the sky?

tonycst Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) yea. if you would at least try the script i made on windows 10 (i have professional if that makes any difference), you would notice that traytips keep poping out even when script ended. Also does not matter what timeout you set, they keep poping at same rate about 6 seconds. Try like 20 traytip's./ it will drive u mad Edited August 22, 2017 by tonycst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly the problem. They keep popping out even when script is exited long time ago, not to mention the timeout setting dont work and they also should cancel previous one and just pop the new one, but they dont, they keep STACKING on top of another. I use traytip for troubleshooting and status update on the script. Its only one line of code and is visual on the screen. No more i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 That sounds like a Windows issue, because AutoIt isn't even running when it's happening. N.B. I ran PowerShell script and it exhibits the exact same behavior. [void] [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms") $objNotifyIcon = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.NotifyIcon $objNotifyIcon.Icon = "C:\Scripts\MyAutoIt3_Green.ico" $objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipIcon = "Info" $objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipText = "Retrieving files from C:\Windows." $objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipTitle = "Retrieving Files" $objNotifyIcon.Visible = $True $objNotifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(10000) Get-ChildItem C:\Windows $objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipText = "The script has finished running." $objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipTitle = "Files retrieved." $objNotifyIcon.Visible = $True $objNotifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(10000) Change the line for $objNotifyIcon.icon to the path to a legitimate icon file. It doesn't seem to use the icon for it, but without it the traytips won't show and I don't know enough PS to bother with a workaround. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.
