flyingboz Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) I have a XPPsp2 workstation which cannot display the TrayTip balloon. I get the annoying burp (which is able to be turned off by adding 16 to the option), and in the following cribbed sample the icons switch as expected.... HOWEVER.. No TrayTip() balloon. I have tested with current production release, and the 3.2.5.7 beta, and run both compiled and not. I have tried on other xp and w2k workstations, which work as expected. If you have a few seconds, please try this sample code and report back if you have a failure to display the balloon tip -- I'd love to pin down the driver / software that is kicking my butt. UPDATE: I rebooted in SAFE MODE, and the problem persists???? Suggestions welcome. $count = 0; $max = 10; While $count < $max+1 TraySetToolTip("Icon " & $count & " Of " & $max); TraySetIcon(@SystemDir & "\shell32.dll",$count); TrayTip("Icon " & $count & "/" & $max,"Icon " & $count & " Of " & $max,"",4); information TIP fails to appear on my development machine. $count = $count + 1 Sleep(500); Wend Edited August 23, 2007 by flyingboz Reading the help file before you post...

weaponx Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 It worked for me. Make sure you don't have this registry key set:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307729 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This value is also able to be set via TweakUI , in the Taskbar and Start menu section.Thanks!!!Now I get to write a UDF that scans the regkey, and mods it if necessary Reading the help file before you post...
