Traymenuex Udf. Add Icon Or Bmp To Trayitem

[smashly]

Thank You Uten for your udf ,exactly what I was looking for

I made my custom icons and stored them as a new icon resource in my autoit compiled scripts exe , works awesome. (of coarse I set the address of the icon in the script before compiling)

Just un upx the compiled scripts exe before adding the new icon resouce with reshacker.

upx the exe back up after it's edited.

(as long as you don't upx -brute or set the upx level to high it works fine)

I notice that as long as you substitute your icon transparency for true white (255,255,255) then transparency works in the tray menu.

I hope you keep going with this udf Uten , maybe it's not a needed udf , but it does add some spice to an otherwise boring tray menu ... All Good

Cheers m8

Please, any help is great appreciated.

i need help with the tray menu icons, they wont display correctly.

see attached images, the extracted icons are not transparent, and they are not sized correctly.

part of my code is underneath the image.

$extract[0] = _LoadImage($sirsi_icon, $IMAGE_ICON)
$extract[1] = _IconExtractFromFile($iepath, 0)
$extract[2] = _IconExtractFromFile($ffpath, 0)
$extract[3] = _IconExtractFromFile("\\svr2\commapps\Office2003\FILES\PFILES\MSOFFICE\OFFICE11\OSA.EXE", 0)
$extract[4] = _IconExtractFromFile($wordpath, 0)
$extract[5] = _IconExtractFromFile($remote_icon, 0)
;~ $extract[6] = _IconExtractFromFile("shell32.dll", 2)
$extract[7] = _IconExtractFromFile("shell32.dll", 166)
$extract[8] = _LoadImage($classreg_icon, $IMAGE_ICON)
;~ $extract[9] = _IconExtractFromFile("\\wkcadesk1\cadesk\Program Files\Pharos\Bin\PsDomain.dll", 0)
$extract[9] = _LoadImage(@ScriptDir & "\pharos.ico", $IMAGE_ICON)
$extract[10] = _IconExtractFromFile("shell32.dll", 146)
$extract[11] = _IconExtractFromFile("shell32.dll", 144)
$extract[12] = _IconExtractFromFile(@systemdir & "\cleanmgr.exe", 0)

_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[2],0)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[1],1)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[3],2)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[0],3)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[4],0,$settingsitem2)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[1],0,$settingsitem1)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[9],1,$settingsitem1)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[2],0,$settingsitem)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[9],1,$settingsitem)
_TrayMenuAddIcon($extract[5],4)

Did you take a look at the sample?

I'm probably stupide to as I can't remeber any of this..

Hey Uten , are you going to add scaling and transparency to this udf, so icons from resources will look right without having to put them through another process ?

I see the comments in your script, and every time I use it I think.. 'Maybe one day, fingers crossed'.

I'd do it myself but I'm to noob when it comes to anything more then the basic of what's in the help file.

BTW , I use your script quite often as I haven't seen another example of creating icons in a tray menu on the forums as of yet.

Funny as I've seen icons for combo boxes, file menus and just about any other control you can think of.

Maybe PaulIA can work his magic with AU3Lib to accomplish tray menu icons scaled and trans in the tray. (that's if it's not possible already with his lib).

Once again thank you for a udf I enjoy the end results of using.

All the best

Cheers

I'm happy to here you like it @smashly. I'm also sorry to tell you that it's not high on my priority list (don't need it myselfe so...) I'll give it an hour during the week. At the moment I don't even remember how this works so I will have to download and read my own code and comments. Don't look forward to that..

[Uten]

Just a note if you monitor this topic. I have not done anything with this. But you will probably find @Holgers work wort a study.

On icons, I usually GIMP mine, and use the Iconify feature...

it makes an icon set with scaled icons from the tiniest to the largest and lets you save it that way as if it was a single icon. Transparency isn't a problem either.

Just thought I'd point this out.

Thanks for these functions. Just what I was looking for. A simple way to put icons in the tray menu items.
