Mouse click on item in Windows system tray.

[rasim]

Well what happens is the bluetooth icon moves from "some" position in the tray to the far left. it also produces a "ballon tip" but I have ballon tips removed. when you single left click on the bluetooth icon it will produce the window needing attention.

Restore the balloon tips showing and try again.

Hi there, this is a useful code.

An interesting thing I noticed is with some certain applications like Spyware Terminator for example, is it does not work unless you have already moused over the system tray icon and had a baloon tip show up.

If you try this with Spyware Terminator it will work, however log off and on again, and first of all run this script and it wont work.

My next question is how could autoit mouse over the selected system tray before running the click section

#Include <GuiToolBar.au3>

;Disable Real-Time Shield
_SysTray_ClickItem("Spyware Terminator", "right", 1)
WinWait("[CLASS:#32768]", "", 3)
SendKeepActive("[LAST]")
ControlSend("[LAST]", "", "", "{DOWN}{DOWN}{RIGHT}{UP}{ENTER}")
Sleep(1000)
WinWaitClose("[CLASS:#32768]", "", 3)

Func _SysTray_ClickItem($iTitle, $iButton = "left", $iClick = 1, $sMove = False, $iSpeed = 1)
    Local $hToolbar, $iButCount, $aRect, $hButton, $cID, $i
    
    $hToolbar = ControlGetHandle("[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]", "", "[Class:ToolbarWindow32;Instance:1]")
    If @error Then
        Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    EndIf
    
    $iButCount = _GUICtrlToolbar_ButtonCount($hToolbar)
    If $iButCount = 0 Then
        Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    EndIf
    
    $hButton = ControlGetHandle("[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]", "", "Button2")
    If $hButton <> "" Then ControlClick("[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]", "", "Button2")
    
    For $i = 0 To $iButCount - 1
        $cID = _GUICtrlToolbar_IndexToCommand($hToolBar, $i)
        If StringInStr(_GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText($hToolBar, $cID), $iTitle) Then
            _GUICtrlToolbar_ClickButton($hToolbar, $cID, $iButton, $sMove, $iClick, $iSpeed)
            Return 1
        EndIf
    Next
    Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
EndFunc

You tried to set the $sMove parameter to True?

ok dumbasses, this is the part where we trade window info for our os, duh

[dogsn0t]

if the poster of this code would be so kind as to elaborate on what controls etc are relevant, then we can continue to phase 2 of this project

dogsn0t,

This is a virtually dead thread (last post some 20 months ago) and the original author has not been seen on the forum for some time.

If you want to know how to click on systray icons, I have some code which will do that, but I would suggest that you open a new thread in the General Support area rather than hijack this one.

P.S. Oh, and it would help if you could make your posts in the new topic a little less cryptic!

All I get with these sample codes are "Required item not found"
