AFAIK, QT doesn't currently have a class that allows this. You will need to use the win32api call SHELL_NOTIFYICON to create the icon, and then I used the winEvent (I think, it's been about 2 years) to capture the incoming WM_ messages. > and some references on QT examples of icontray-program.. but that was > outdated, > and I couldn't make it work in python.. > > so, is there anyone that has managed to do this? > and how? Yes, I have. Unfortunately the code was developed for a company I no longer work for. Otherwise, I would share. There is a pure win32 example here. The main changes are 1) create a hidden widget, and make that the parent of the notify icon. (The parent gets the events you are interested in.) Then override, winEvent (I'm 60% sure that is the name, I'm sure someone else (who has used QT more recently than I ) would remember the correct one). In that event handler examine the LPARAM(again, I think) and compare to the WM_ constants you found. This is a brief overview, but it should get you started, sorry I can't be more help. > > all information highly appreciated. > > thanks. > > .b > > _______________________________________________ > PyKDE mailing list [email protected] > http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde -- --- Rob "Myddrin" Knapp [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.myddrin.com _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list [email protected] http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
