Hide Tray...

[PantZ4]

I just have a week memory about a topic were we just ControlHide to fun stuff. We hide the start button and made it move so you couldn't hit it. Anyway now I need to hide the icon tray but I really can't remember what to write . I tried search but I gave up.

So what shall I write?

I have the Class name; Shell_TrayWnd

And I shall use the ControlHide function.

I have tried ControlHide("","",'ToolbarWindow32') and ControlHide("","",'Shell_TrayWnd') but those does not seem to work.

opt('wintitlematchmode', 4)

controlhide('classname=shell_traywnd', '', 'ToolbarWindow321')

Also from your examples..... ToolbarWindow32[Missing at least 1 number there]

If you are using the newer versions of AutoIt ... Jon re-wrote the info.exe. Now you must add "Instance" (Under the ClassNameNN) to the end of the "ClassNameNN"

You might want to reread the OP and SmOke_N's solution.

To get my edit of this script to work I had to do three things.

1. change the classname string to the correct case of letters

2. hide traynotifywnd because my task bar shows a static image of where the tray icons were

3. show the traynotifywnd as the image is now gone from it - leaving it hidden also removes the tray clock

Note. if your tray icon section has expand buttons you may see a static image of the "expand" button while expanded, but it will be gone once collapsed.

Also Note: if anything passes over the traynotifywnd control while the Tray icon toolbar is hidden, the traynotifywnd will take a static copy of the image of any thing passing on top of it.

This code (for me) successfully replaces the icon tray with a blank space matching the taskbar theme.

;hide tray icons
#NoTrayIcon
Opt('wintitlematchmode', 4)
ControlHide('classname=Shell_TrayWnd','', 'ToolbarWindow321') ;Hide the actual tray icon toolbar
ControlHide('classname=Shell_TrayWnd','', 'TrayNotifyWnd1') ;Hide this control to eliminate any overlayed static images
ControlShow('classname=Shell_TrayWnd','', 'TrayNotifyWnd1') ;Show this control to keep the clock


;Reshow the tray icons
#NoTrayIcon
Opt('wintitlematchmode', 4)
ControlHide('classname=Shell_TrayWnd','', 'TrayNotifyWnd1') ;Hide this control to eliminate any overlayed static images
ControlShow('classname=Shell_TrayWnd','', 'ToolbarWindow321') ;activate the actual tray icon toolbar
ControlShow('classname=Shell_TrayWnd','', 'TrayNotifyWnd1') ;Show this control to display everything again
