Custom Tray Icon

[Matt @ MPCS]

I have seen this done on this forum, but when I try the examples provided it never seems to work. After simplifying the examples to almost nothing:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

HotKeySet( "!^x", "END" )

GUITray("show", "new tooltip", "stop")

While 1
   Sleep 10
WEnd

Func END
   Exit
EndFunc

It tells me that there isn't a GUITray function, so Have these functions been removed? What am I doing wrong?

Yeah, Jon wrote:

- All the GUI tray icon menus/minimize to type code has been removed until we can work out how best to implement this with multi windows

Edit:

Holger has begun to work on this...

Thanks for the update josbe. That will be very useful when it finally gets stablized.

Sure. I need it, too.

If anyone is looking for suggestions for a workaround (not as good as native support), I run my script as a service and created a VB configuration interface of which creates the tray icon to control the service.

I would be happy to supply VB source to anyone looking to do the same.

.. thanks, sounds like a nice candidate for Scripts and Scraps

I will be providing a "lite" version of my current project for the forum to observe, but due to company restrictions I am not allowed to share the "full" version. The project is a server monitor, specifically the "lite" version monitors http/https/ftp servers but isn't in the form of a service so it will not be using my service controller. I never thought about posting VB apps in scripts and scraps... always assumed they would be unwelcome.

The option still is open if you need the code to add a tray icon in vb though... i'll have to check but I might even be able to post my dynamic menu code to make the menus for it. No guarentees on that though.
