I downloaded that page ut I still don't see where they are making the tips interactive (even though they show the right type of ballon). I have a hunch that there is an extended style to do it. I'm no expert but that code looks like it will just create the same as we have now with no X to close and no function to perform if you click on it.

On the bright side, you're putting a good effort into finding the solution. :lmao:

Just a thought, if we have a balloon tip that has an interactive "X" control, why don't we start looking there?

There are many created within Win XP but so far AutoIt won't create them. To see one just watch your system tray when you start windows. There is usually at least one that shows up.

I'm not sure if any of the other scripting languages create then either but I'm going to start looking there (vbs, Kikstart ^etc)

Like I said, I'm not an expert but I don't see where they do. As far as I can tell they are creating what we have now in those examples.

If we had a wish list I'd put it on. (Yes, I'm well familiar with the Ideas forum ;) )

Just a hunch from the MSDN website, wouldn't all the information be located in the DLL file called, Comclt32.dll?

I think it says to see Using Windows XP Visual Styles.

At least one of the scripts I've made has a balloon tip with an "X". Not sure what my point there was....I'm a stop typing now. lol

Look at post 26 for placing a button on the Balloon.

I had read your last post Gary and I'm still trying to figure out how to make it work. Sooner or later I'll have an answer that is easy for everyone. I've looked through most of the VB code that I have (mainlt pre-XP) and I can' see any code there that does it either.

Just too many projects on the go right now so it's hard to concentrate on one little item at a time. I' only going to use it to add an extra style to the Tray Tips in the new version of PX anyway. and that re-write is starting to fall behind schedule.

Thanks agin for the input

Try googling for Balloon Button and maybe subclass

SciTE for AutoItDirections for Submitting Standard UDFs

 

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

I'd sure like to see the code that created it ;)

It's a regular tray tip, running on XP Home SP2.
