Traymenu and main loop

[Miliardsto]

 

Hello I have problem with traymenu. If I run function trayMenu() with has inside while loop of course main loop (main program with gui) does not work.  

This is how it looks in init file

 trayMenu()

    #include "../inc/whileLoop.au3"

Func trayMenu()

    Global $trayExit = TrayCreateItem("Exit")

    TraySetState($TRAY_ICONSTATE_SHOW) ; Show the tray menu.


    While 1
        Switch TrayGetMsg()
           Case $trayExit ; Exit the loop.
                Terminate()
        EndSwitch

    Wend


EndFunc

#MAIN LOOP

While 1

    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg


        ; ===================================================== CORE ACTIONS ==========================================================================

        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, $GUI_CLOSE_BUTTON
            _Metro_GUIDelete($GUI) ;Delete GUI/release resources, make sure you use this when working with multiple GUIs!
            Exit
        Case $GUI_MINIMIZE_BUTTON
            GUISetState(@SW_MINIMIZE, $GUI)

        Case $GUI_EVENT_RESTORE
            restore_switchGUI()
            ;_switchGUI($gui_active,$gui_active) ; normal switch causing problem



        Case $GUI_MENU_BUTTON
            ;Create an Array containing menu button names
            Local $MenuButtonsArray = $menusArray ; get from global array

            ; Open the metro Menu. See decleration of $MenuButtonsArray above.
            Local $MenuSelect = _Metro_MenuStart($GUI, 140, $MenuButtonsArray)


    EndSwitch
WEnd

is there possibility to main loop contain second switch for  TrayGetMsg() ? 

Or how achieve it working together
