Tested on Windows 10 LTSC 2019 (1809) x64 version: 10.0.17763 build 17763.475 and Windows Server 2008 R2. Tried run script x64 and x86 same result. Is this kind a bug or something?

So I'm coding in win 10, ..every thing looks nice but then I think, what about XP, ...ugly, but I make it pretty again, no problem. Lets check in Win 7 and here is my conundrum. Win 10, DRM is on, XP is off ( well, non-existant ), so far so good. I decide to make it the "switch" to enable or disable the checkbox in the context menu. Win 7 ... I try to apply the same logic and: DRM on: DRM off: now, "Windows 7 Basic": DRM is off Question: how should I determine if to hide the check-mark or not?, Is there a way to know that this theme is ? or better yet, how can I know that the theme is classic ? Thanks PS: I know that the code is not here but I think that my trend of thought would make it irrelevant anyway.

LAST VERSION - 1.0 19-May-12 I think many of you would like to perform some action (for example, to call the dialog box) when a user clicks on the tray tip. Here is a simple way to do it. Unfortunately, without .dll do not seem possible. Note, only AutoIt window can be registered as a source window, see example.

I need to read the status of OneDrive icon running in the taskbar and update the status in a log file. 2nd part I can complete But the first part, how to read the status of tray menu icon. I need the text above from the tray icon. I looked into , but not that helpful.

Hi All, I'm using UseTraySetIcon("shell32.dll", xx) to set my tray icon to a specific icon while running, is there a way I can specify this icon when I compile my script into an exe so my exe icon is the same? Thanks!

Hello Guys, Is there a way to have Auto it Exe messages/line number when you hover over the tray icon just at it shows when you run Au3.? For an example, if I the script has paused due to WinWait or Sleep I could hover over the icon and it shows the line where it's at. Is there a way to achieve the same with the compiled exe? Many thanks for the help!

I have a script that gets a list of visible windows and makes a tray item of each in the tray menu. I'd also want it to update every time I want to access that menu again, in case new windows have appeared or some would have been closed. I'm using TrayOnEventMode option and trying to get the update going with TraySetOnEvent($TRAY_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN...) as in the snippet below. However, the list doesn't update until after the tray menu has been closed again. I think I could work around this by having the script update the list constantly in the background, but that feels like it'd take up unnecessary amount of resources since the script might be used rarely by the user anyway. I tried using TraySetOnEvent($TRAY_EVENT_MOUSEOVER...), and that kind of does it, but it actually still calls my function many times (since the mouse cursor moves quite a bit on the icon) before the tray menu is opened. I could put another menuitem to call the update function, but I'd much rather have just the minimal amount of user actions. Similarly I could have tray menu open with a double click (with TraySetClick()) and have the first click just call the update function, but can anyone tell me if there's a way to call the update once and then have the menu open without these gimmicks? Opt("TrayOnEventMode", 1) TraySetOnEvent($TRAY_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN, "UpdateWindowsList")

Hi All, I have a custom icon for the tray menu icon, which was working until I copied in the example code for a custom menu when clicking on the tray icon, now it just displays the default AutoIt tray icon. The menu works fine, but the tray icon initiates as the AutoIt default icon and the icon won't change on event. Can anyone advise what I need to do to use my custom icon while retaining the tray custom menu? Thanks! Also, the While 1 ... WEnd makes me nervous, how does this not lock up the system? If anyone would like to comment on that - thanks.

Hi, Here is an UDF to create, delete, set the icon and state, tooltip and tip for your notify icons. The main advantage is that you can handle mouse events as you want, there is no default events. You can create fully customised notifyicons/tooltips. Thanks to Holger Kotsch for his ModernMenu UDF. Note : Breaking changes ! Please use the 1.2+ version. Functions : Attachments : Example + UDF : AutoIt v3.3.10.0+ NotifyIcon_1.2.zip TrayIconEx_1.1.zip AutoIt v3.3.8.0+ TrayIconEx.zip & Requirements : >WinAPIEx UDF. As usual, enjoy !

Sorry for such a general question, I asked a more in depth one a week ago and was unable to get the answer I needed. I have a tray item and one of them is nested 2 deep, and its set to display that its selected and all that. I have two questions about this: 1. How once the tray item is selected with the dot next to it, how do i know its selected? Where would I look in the script? 2. Is there a way to make the tray not close after selecting the tray item? Thanks guys!

Searched and found one thread but it wasn't very helpful. I was wondering how to do this, I have a UI and I would like it when you hit minimize it will go to the tray. Not the start bar. Then the tray will have options to just run from there, or restoring to the UI the saw before. I am sure its a common thing, just cant figure it out so far.

I have 2 guis both of which minimize to the system tray like I want, however the first GUI when it is "restored" pops right up, and yet the second GUI, when it "restores", looks like it is flying in. On the second GUI I have and want to have the minimize and Close butttons but how do I get is so that when the GUI is restored from the taskbar it does not fly in. Code for the first GUI #NoTrayIcon #include <File.au3> #include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <EditConstants.au3> #include <Constants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <GUIListBox.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> Opt("TrayOnEventMode",1) Opt("TrayMenuMode",1) TraySetOnEvent($TRAY_EVENT_PRIMARYUP,"SpecialEvent") GUICreate("HelpDesk App", 300, 620, Default, Default, BitAND($WS_CAPTION, $WS_POPUP, $WS_SYSMENU), $WS_EX_CONTEXTHELP) GUISetState() Func SpecialEvent() GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) TraySetState(2) ; hide EndFunc ;==> SpecialEvent Code for the second GUI #include <File.au3> #include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <EditConstants.au3> #include <Constants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <GUIConstants.au3> #include <GUIListBox.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <Array.au3> #include <Process.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> #include <GUIComboBox.au3> #Include <String.au3> #include <Icons.au3> #include <GuiTab.au3> #include <GUIButton.au3> #Include <TabConstants.au3> #NoTrayIcon Opt("TrayOnEventMode",1) Opt("TrayMenuMode",1) TraySetOnEvent($TRAY_EVENT_PRIMARYUP,"SpecialEvent") GUICreate("Utility v3.0", 315, 750) GUISetState() Func SpecialEvent() GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) TraySetState(2) ; hide EndFunc ;==> SpecialEvent Note* I have tried adding the same styles to the second GUI but it removes the Minimize and close buttons Thanks, Grimm

Is it possible to show different menus for left click and right on tray icon simultaneously, if yes, please tell how, hoping for a reply soon

Everytime when you start a program, its icon shows up in the taskbar, like in the picture: The 'Paint' and 'Excel' programs are running, so appears their icons in the Taskbar. If they aren't running,the taskbar is clean. How can I hide or make to dissapear the icon from another program that shows there ? I would appreciate any help !

I'm making a Traymenu in systray to initiate a certain function automatically based on changes in @ipaddress. The While loop uses about 2-4 cpu constantly. Example: While 1 $msg = TrayGetMsg() Select Case $msg = 0 If $ipstring <> @IPAddress1 & @IPAddress2 & @IPAddress3 & @IPAddress4 Then _CheckIPs() ContinueLoop Case $msg = $connect _Connect() TrayItemSetState($connect, $tray_unchecked) Case $msg = $disconnect _Disconnect() EndIf ;Case $msg = $exititem ; ExitLoop EndSelect WEnd $ipstring = @IPAddress1 & @IPAddress2 & @IPAddress3 & @IPAddress4 is set inside _CheckIPs(). I've tried different solutins, but it seems that everything I try will utilize 2-4% CPU. I've also tried _DateDiff() before the $ipstring check, but _NowCalc() also uses CPU. Anyone got any ideas on how to solve this without utilizing the CPU?

I'm writing a tray based program, and for every different option the user selects, the icon changes... I add the #include"icon.ico" where icon.ico would be the icon name obviously... But when I compile the program with the offical autoit compiler it doesn't seem to include the icons... Any clue what I'm doing wrong?
