EDD Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Maybe i'm reading over it in the help, but is it possible to disable a menu in the system tray. I'm not meaning the autit icon menu but any given program in the system tray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW1 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 (edited) I am not positive that I am reading your question correctly but, if I am, you are trying to hide certain icons from the sys tray.... Did you know you can do this natively via the taskbar settings? Check "Hide inactive icons"> goto "Customize" and you can tell it to hide certain programs or hide when inactive or show.... hope this helps. I would assume that this is somewhere in the registry also, incase you wanted to do it in AutoIt alone (but im at work, so that research is for you LOL ) Edited June 22, 2007 by danwilli AutoIt3 Online Help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDD Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 (edited) Thanx for you reply. I'm meaning something else then you answerd. If you right click on a icon most icons in the taskbar popup with a menu. What i want is to disable, de menu from popping up.

EDD Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 I do not think that such is possible - but why would you want to do that?I'm working for a company with several shops. I don't want that it's possible for them to change the configuration of a program trough the system tray icon. because if they do the change is big that it wont function correcly anymore.

Constantly check the mouse position - if it goes into the system tray region, create a SplashTextOn with a warning. They will not be able to click thru the splash screen.I'm not sure if there is a UDF that will tell you the current size of the system tray... but that would come in handy for my work around....hope this helps...

Vindicator209 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I dont think you can do that, the splash text on box wont show ontop of the taskbar, [center]"When you look at old, classic games like Snake, you often put it off because it's such a simple game, but it's only when you actually try and create your own unique game from scratch, do you finally appreciate those games."[/center][center]Don't ask for answers if you haven't TRIED yet![/center][center]Most answers can be answered in the help file!

Vindicator209 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 (edited) I think this might be a little better, that is, using HereWasPlato's Idea It has a TrayTip, so there has to be an Icon, however, you can get rid of the icon by taking away the " ; " infront of AutoItSetOption _BlockSysTray( [Tip Title] , [Tip Text] ) #include <GuiConstants.au3> ;AutoItSetOption("TrayIconHide",1) Func _BlockSysTray($bTitle,$bText) $Pix1=PixelSearch(0,0,@DesktopWidth,@DesktopHeight,1886455) $Coord1=@DesktopWidth -$Pix1[0] $Coord2=@DesktopHeight -$Pix1[1] GUICreate("Block",$Coord1 + 10,$Coord2, $Pix1[0]-10,$Pix1[1],$WS_POPUP,$WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW) GuiSetState() WinSetOnTop("Block","",1) WinSetTrans("Block","",10) While 1 $Pixel=MouseGetPos() If $Pixel[0] > $Pix1[0] Then If $Pixel[1] > $Pix1[1] Then TrayTip($bTitle,$bText,3) EndIf EndIf WinSetOnTop("Block","",1) Sleep(500) WEnd EndFunc I just whipped this up in like 15 mins so it may contain bugs, I did this because I have a similar goal, hope it helps! This is on Windows XP Blue Theme, to change this script, use the autoit info to find the pixel color on the top left of the system tray, but this is only if you have something else =P Cheers, MethodZero Edited June 25, 2007 by MethodZero [center]"When you look at old, classic games like Snake, you often put it off because it's such a simple game, but it's only when you actually try and create your own unique game from scratch, do you finally appreciate those games."[/center][center]Don't ask for answers if you haven't TRIED yet![/center][center]Most answers can be answered in the help file!

EDD Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 Thanx all for your sugestions and scripts. I fixed my problem sometime ago end did not post it here, shame on me It's not full proof but if you dont know the trick you won't be able to get to the menu. ;DISABLE RIGHT CLICK ICON <<begin>> If _IsPressed("02") = 1 Then $iProcesses = _SysTrayIconProcesses() For $i=0 to Ubound($iProcesses)-1 if $iProcesses[$i] = "fax.exe" Then $process = $iProcesses[$i] EndIf Next $icon = _SysTrayIconIndex($process) $positie = _SysTrayIconPos($icon) $mouse = MouseGetPos() If $mouse[0] > $positie[0] -5 and $mouse[0] < $positie[0] + 22 Then If $mouse[1] > $positie[1] -5 and $mouse[1] < $positie[1] + 22 Then While 1 If _IsPressed("02") = 0 Then Send("{esc}") ExitLoop EndIf WEnd EndIf EndIf EndIf ;DISABLE RIGHT CLICK ICON <<einde>> The only hole in this script is if you right click your mouse and you move your mouse on some places around the icon in the taskbar the menu gets still visible. You also see if you right click on the icon sometimes a split second the menu. Mmmhhh now i'm thinking about it.... I can fix the hole. If people right click on the icon and i disable them from not going outside area, the problem is fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
