I'm trying to create a bandwidth monitor - I've done most of it, but I want to have a notifyicon that changes dependent on the bandwidth.
The same as when you open task manager and then minimise it, there is a little animated bar graph by the clock showing CPU usage...
i need to show linklabel in notifyicon tooltip ballon..if its impossible can i show smal form like tool tip top of the NotifyIcon on the taskbar
View 2 RepliesI currently have the following code but I would like to get away from going to a physical location. If I have the icon as a resource, how can I programatically add the icon? I don't want to use the form's designer to do this.
Sub Form1_Load()
Dim ico As New System.Drawing.Icon("C:Resourcesicon.ico")
Me.Icon = ico
End Sub
I have absolutely no clue why my notify icon will not appear. I use notifyicon1.visible = true on the form's load event, but it seems to not be working. I have tried every single thing possible. Does anyone know what is going on???"When the going gets tough, the tough get Chuck Norris"
View 11 RepliesI made a small app that uses a hidden form and shows a notify icon to do some things with, strange thing is that the notify icon is not visible. I changed the opacity of the form back to 100% to make sure the form is open and it is. I also step through the code to make sure it was executing and it is. I also published the single form app and installed it on another machine and the same problem exist as the debug machine.
I made another test app with only a form and a notify icon and in the load event of the form, I put the same code minus the if statement and still no notify icon.Is this a bug in VS08 Pro?Heres my code
NotifyIcon1.ShowBalloonTip(10000000, "Reminders", "No settings have been entered", ToolTipIcon.Warning)
NotifyIcon1.Visible = True
I use VB9 in Visual Studio 2008, and I've written a program that includes a notify icon.
I have both the balloon title and text set up with the text that I want displayed but it doesn't seem to work (on this or another test machine).
When the program first starts, the balloon appears in the system tray, then quickly disappears.
I've been successful with this in VB6. The VS2005 notifyicon class is certainly much nicer and much improved.I've implemented a notifyicon and it's working as expected with one exception.
View 10 RepliesI have been working with the Notify Icon to make it easier for some who prefer minimizing an application into the notification bar rather than the task bar. I have a drop down item that allows the user to Show in Notification area if checked. If it's not checked, then the form reverts back to default with the task bar. However, when this is checked and I minimize the form, I can not open the form from the notification tray. The problem is when the notify icon is visible and clicked, I need it to run code. If the form is minimized, I want it to show the app when I click the icon.
Here is my code:
Private Sub ShowInTaskbarToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles ShowInTaskbarToolStripMenuItem.Click
If ShowInTaskbarToolStripMenuItem.Checked = True Then
NotifyIcon1.Visible = True

recently been working on an application and added a minimize to tray feature. An update to the program made it so I could run multiple instances of the application without them interfering with each other. Which is great and what I had planned. BUT now when more than 1 instance of the application is running I have two notify(tray)icons on the system tray.My question is how, if its even possible, would I make both minimize into the same tray icon and just add a contextmenuitem to the right click menu (listing the name of the windows that are minimized). I hope thats not too confusing.I know how to add the contextmenuitems that won't be an issue once I can figure out how to get the windowstate of the other instance of the application.
instance1\..................................................._open instance1.windowcaption
...............\_______trayicon>contextmenu__/__open instance2.windowcaption
.............../................................................\___close all instances

I have a little problem trying to port a C++ approach to use a notify icon control to a VB WPF project.
Code:
m_notifyIcon.Click += new EventHandler(m_notifyIcon_Click);
VS says that m_notifyIcon.Click is an event and can not be called directly and that I should use RaiseEvent.
im having problem with this code, what i want it to do it go on the site nd if it finds the word online it switches the text so say it directed to google and the word online is somewhere in the html code of the site, the app should then change label 5 to online BUT i get this error
"Could not find file 'C:UsersOwnerDesktopAMi BETAAMi BETAinDebugwww.google.com'."everything i want the notifyicon to do is working but i only want it to pop up once but every time the timer ticks it pops up
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ServerStatus.Tick

I want to add an animated taskbar icon to my WPF project. I figured I would just use the Icon property, but I'm fairly new to WPF, and I dont know how to do it. In Winforms I would create a thread like this:[code]But I can't find a Window.Dispatcher to use this approach in WPF. I also see something about "BeginAnimation" in the Icon Property?
View 1 RepliesUsing VB2010. I want to create an animated icon to go in the SysTray, and I have created all the individual frames as .ico files. Now, I don't like hard coding file names in the code, so I created an ImageList with the .ico files, which I then want to walk through using a Timer. Now, apparently NotifyIcon doesn't accept ImageLists? I get errors when I try to use it. I searched the web, and saw a tip to instead pass the handle of the ImageList to NotifyIcon. So I did this in the timer:
Static Index As Integer = -1
Dim IconHandle As IntPtr
If Index = AnimationIcons.Images.Count - 1 Then
[Code]....
I noticed that when the app closed the icon remained on the taskbar until the mouse was hovered over it, so added this:-
If Not AlarmClockNotify Is Nothing Then
AlarmClockNotify.Dispose()
End If
.. and that did the job.
Then I noticed that if the balloon was showing at the time the app was closed, the icon went - but the balloon stayed, so added this:-
If Not AlarmClockNotify Is Nothing Then
AlarmClockNotify.Visible = False
AlarmClockNotify.Visible = True
AlarmClockNotify.Dispose()
End If
and everything worked fine until the app was closed WITHOUT the icon showing (only dislays if an alarm is pending in the next x days) - then it throws and 'object reference not set to an instance of an object' - odd because it passed straight through the 'not is nothing' If statement.
I want the form to hide when I click on the minimize button, then the notify icon will show up on the system tray. I have this piece of code:
(ntfLibSMS is the name of my notify icon)
Private Sub LibSMS_Resize(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Resize

I have added a minimize to tray function into my webbrowser and it makes use of the notify icon control. Now I know my code isn't flawed as it works in vista in xp but not in 7 (The icon simply is not in the tray).
Me.Hide()
NotifyIcon.Text = ("Xtreme Browser, Current User: " + Current_User)
NotifyIcon.Visible = True
I have a application which is written in background worker. Inside the background worker i am creating the multiple threads . The application has one notify icon.

View 8 RepliesEvery six minutes, my program talks to an instrument. Then, it activates a notify icon's tool tip for half a second to say what it did and when. According to the databases, everything's been going great, but the balloon tip text is a week behind and still trying to catch up. I'm getting text after text about stuff that happened last week. You should know that no one's touched the machine for at least a week. Because the program talks to the instrument every six minutes, the computer never hibernates, never shuts down, and the screen saver is off.
View 8 RepliesI'm working on a project with FTPwebrequest methods, the problem is that every time the program executes a FTP command such as download/upload/connect, It completely freezes the form. However I need a progressbar to keep the user updated of the download status. The only way I can see this working is applying the progressbar to a notifyicon(taskbar).
