Request Feature: Windows Systray items

buzz · Post by **buzz** » Thu Aug 04, 2005 10:57 pm

Since more programs are using icons in the windows systray (Taskbar lower right), could you please add a function to have the ability to:

1. Provide a function to get access to the program icons located in the windows systray

2. Ability to capture pop-up messages when hovering over these icons in the windows systray

My current project is to test our product which is accessible through the icon in the windows sytray.

Thanks.

Support addressed the system tray icon issue in this thread http://www.mjtnet.com/usergroup/viewtop ... light=tray bottom line is that there are a variety of ways that system tray icons behave.

I have automated the opening of two lurking system tray icons. I found one started a program when the icon was clicked so MS's runprogram worked, one could be opened by MS just by settingfocus to the title of the window that opened when the icon was clicked so YMMV really does apply in this case.

Since you are automating your own program presumably you can obtain the information you need to make it work.
