RE: [DUG]: Tray Icons
I have used the same component though we are not using 98 here. To make your window active you could try Throwing a WM_MOUSEDOWN Message at the form when the app restores. The icon tray compnent does have an on restore event associated withit (from memory - check this).

I need -: 1) Animation from a Resource File 2) Proper Popup Menu Support 3) Proper Hiding and Showing of the Icon 4) Proper display of windows on Windows98 after being activated from Popup Menu. I have tried a few around, but some are just CRAP. I found one that I thought worked OK. It did not support Dbl-Click. It leaves the icon hanging around sometimes which leaves gaps in my Tray. The icon is not visible, but the tool tip is if you hover over it. I used a product called PGTray95, which supports all but #4. On my NT Server computer, using PGTray95 #4 above works, it also works on Win95, but on Win98 the window opens, the cursor is flashing in the edit control, but the form is not active. You must select the form with the mouse, or Alt-Tab to activate it.

RE: [DUG]: Tray Icons
The problem is Nigel, it is usually not my window which contains the Tray icon. It is sometimes a dialog, like say InputDialog. It is a real hassle, as that Tray Icon is great except for this problem Chris Christopher Crowe (Software Developer) Microsoft MVP, MCP Adrock Software Byte Computer & Software LTD P.O Box 13-155 Christchurch New Zealand Phone/Fax (NZ) 03-3651-112 > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On > Behalf Of Nigel Tavendale > Sent: Thursday, 29 April 1999 16:22 > To: Multiple recipients of list delphi > Subject: RE: [DUG]: Tray Icons > > > I have used the same component though we are not using 98 here. > > To make your window active you could try Throwing a WM_MOUSEDOWN > Message at > the form when the app restores.

RE: [DUG]: Tray icons and taskbar icons
Hi Al. I use a really nice component called CoolTrayIcon which is free. It handles everything for you. If you want ot hide the window, you call HideWindow, to show it, ShowWindow etc. etc. etc. I found it a LOT better than the RX one. Email me Priv. if you want it. Its free.

Having some minimize problems. When I minize to tray 1st time is OK, no sign left on task bar of application. Then I restore from tray and then second time minize to tray an icon is left on the task bar (undesirable). Any thoughts? procedure TMainform.MinimizeToTray(sender: TObject); begin hide; application.Minimize; rxtrayicon1.active := true; end; procedure TMainform.EXITtoBack4WinXP1Click(Sender: TObject); begin RxTrayIcon1.Active := false; //Show; application.Restore; BringToFront; end; --- New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz To UnSub, send email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body of "unsubscribe delphi" Web Archive at: http://www.mail-archive.com/delphi%40delphi.org.nz/ --- New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz To UnSub, send email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body of "unsubscribe delphi" Web Archive at: http://www.mail-archive.com/delphi%40delphi.org.nz/
