I don't understand exactly what you mean??? can you make it more
clear?

from the toolbox, I dragged the notify icon to my form, and then I
referenced it like:
Me.NotMemberSer v.ShowBalloonTi p(5000, "New Member IDs", iCountNew & "
Member IDs Downloaded.", ToolTipIcon.Inf o)

I get no error, but the bolloon does not show. so, I am wondering why
it does not show. thanks again.

Hi, I have a C# program that changes the notifyIcon during the program. What I have noticed is that sometimes when the program is over the old icon will still be in the system tray. But when i move over the icons in the taskbar the taskbar will immediately update itself and clear the old icon away. I was just wondering if this is normal or if I am supposed to "force" an update of the taskbar system tray icons somehow?

But the Icon will not display for the service. My service utilizes an Asynchronous Callback to load a queue. There is other background processing based on time (different thread). I have heard that the Notify Icon may have issues when the thread that instanctiates...

Hi there, I have an app whose structure is as follows: a module calls a custom application context containing a notify icon and associated context menu, which in turn acts upon an instance of another class, I'll call Class1 (i.e. accesses its startup, shutdown, print reports methods).

ok, So .net makes it pretty easy to add a systray icon now. However, does anyone know of a way to force the text (tooltip) to appear. Instead of it only appearing when the mouse goes over it can it be forced to appear for say 5 seconds? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Nate

I am going to make an application in monitor and do something on time. A part of it is an Notify icon(System Tray Icon), Which project type can I be used for Just showing the notify icon without any form? What I mean is something like When you minimize the MSN Messager as a tray icon. I have tried a service project and application project, all these seems cannot meet the goal.

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,...
