HI,

may have a look at Valuaters PC look... script (its in his sig)

Opt ("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)

Winsetstate("classname=Shell_TrayWnd","",@SW_HIDE)
Sleep (5000)
Winsetstate("classname=Shell_TrayWnd","",@SW_Show)

So long,

Mega

If you want some example:

#NoTrayIcon
MsgBox(0,Default,"Press OK to unhide icon")
Opt("TrayIconHide",0)
MsgBox(0,default,"Press OK to exit")
Exit
;Not tested

He means taskbar not tray icon

Also, closing explorer.exe will acomplish this, just make sure you run it again later in the program

ProcessClose("explorer.exe")
ToolTip("No Taskbar!", 0,0)
Sleep(5000)
ToolTip("",0,0)
Run("explorer.exe")

Did you notice the difference between the 2 calls to WinSetState()? @SW_HIDE / @SW_SHOW - do you know what those 2 do? Edited July 14, 2006 by SmOke_N
