Hashbong Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Hello, I would like to code a tray icon in AutoIt which changes colours when a VPN connexion is turned ON or OFF. - When my VPN connexion is off, the tray icon should be gray. - When my VPN connexion is on, the tray icon should be blue. - On a click on gray tray icon, the connexion is switched on... and the icon becomes blue - On a click on blue tray icon, the connexion is switched off... and the icon becomes gray Has somebody any clue, how to achieve that? (icon change) Thanls in advance! Hashbong P.-S. target OS: Windows 7
BrewManNH Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 You could probably use a combination of TraySetIcon and TraySetState in your script to handle that. Changing the icon itself would be done by TraySetIcon, having it flash/hide/show etc. would be done by TraySetState. You'd have to have more than one icon if you're changing the colors because one icon can't be recolored as far as I am aware. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

somdcomputerguy Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 I'm almost certain that one icon can't be changed (recolored), and two different icons would have to be used. I do this in a script, using TraySetIcon. - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

Hashbong Posted September 4, 2011 Author Posted September 4, 2011 Thank you very much for your suggestions, BrewManNH. It helped me to write (hmm, mostly copy and paste from the help)... #include <Constants.au3> #NoTrayIcon Opt("TrayOnEventMode",1) Opt("TrayMenuMode",1) ; Default tray menu items (Script Paused/Exit) will not be shown. ;$exit = TrayCreateItem("Exit") ;TrayItemSetOnEvent(-1,"ExitEvent") TraySetOnEvent($TRAY_EVENT_PRIMARYUP, "toggleVPN") TraySetOnEvent($TRAY_EVENT_SECONDARYUP, "ExitEvent") TraySetState() Global $vpnState = "OFF" TraySetIcon("icon-off.ico") While 1 Sleep(10) ; Idle loop WEnd Exit Func toggleVPN() if $vpnState = "ON" Then ShellExecuteWait ("RASDIAL.EXE", " /d", @SystemDir, "open", @SW_MAXIMIZE) $vpnState = "OFF" TraySetIcon("icon-off.ico") Else ShellExecuteWait ("RASDIAL.EXE", "MYCONNECTION1", @SystemDir, "open", @SW_MAXIMIZE) $vpnState = "ON" TraySetIcon("icon-on.ico") EndIf EndFunc Func ExitEvent() Exit EndFunc ...which is a good start,
