Navigation Pane question

I'm looking to place an icon for my app on the Navigation Pane (lower right
of task bar), yet haven't been able to find any information on how to do
this. The app basically is a running file watcher that fires off a routine
when a file appears in a specific folder. I want the icon on the Navigation
Pane to show the user it is running but don't want the program to be
minimized with an icon on the task bar (similar to SQL Server icon in
navigation bar, or clock, or whatever). I know it's possible as other
programs use this feature. Can someone point me to the correct information
source to do this?

Thanx,

Allen

There is a good article on Developer.com that should get you started:

In my application, I'm going to have a navigation pane (i.e. frames) on the left that links to pages that display in the main window. The list of choices varies by user, but once a user logs in, it is always the same list. I'm going to arrange this pane as a hierarchical list of headings, subheadings, and links, i.e. something like: Number Theory Tools Euclid's GCD Algorithm Continued Fraction Expansion of a Rational Number

I've been looking and maybe I've missed something but is there a way to undock the navigation pane or at least not have it "always on top" in design view? I realize it can be minimized, but having to do this all the time to reclaim my screen real estate in design view seems very counterproductive.

I have set the Navigation Pane so that it is not displayed on startup of my application. However, if I programmatically link to an external Access table, the navigation pane automatically reappears. Is there any way to avoid this? I am using the code below to link the external table. DoCmd.TransferDatabase A_ATTACH, "Microsoft Access", sourceDBName, A_TABLE, sourceTableName, destTableName

I'm a student trying to teach myself to use access. I somehow managed to minimize my navigation pane and now I can't figure out how to reopen it. The Access handbook says that, even when minimized, it should appear as a thin strip on the side, but it doesn't. Is there any other way I can open the navigation pane?

I posted a different question (Help with non-static/static problem) which was answered. I changed my inner class to a static nested class, but now I cannot create an object using that class and add it to the JTabbedPane. I get a 'cannot find symbol' error, and it points to the pane.addTab method. The program works fine when I remove the nested class and make it a separate class, then instantiate it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
