Something about tray application...

[Yalato]

I want my program to show system tray on the right-bottom on the monitor,and minimum the windows such that the taskbutton not in the bottom.
I just writed.But I can't minimum the windows completely!
I can let taskbutton be disappear,but there is still titlebar on the left-bottom side.
So what can I do?
Thanks so much!

Hi, Yalato.

I'm a little confused about what you're trying to do. Could you please send me a screenshot of how the window is not minimizing completely?

Thanks! Have a nice evening.

What I said is like the picture.
Although I already solved the problem,by using Shell_NotifyIcon() function in microsoft visual c++.
I have not tried this in CVI.
So now I just want to know if there is still another solution about this problem.
Thanks a lot.

I expect you can do this by fiddling with the window attributes in the Windows SDK. But a pure CVI solution might be:

• Create a timer control on the panel with a suitably small interval (say 0.05 seconds)
  
• In the timer callback, hide the panel if it is minimized (and not yet hidden), for example:
  

int CVICALLBACK MainTimer (int panel, int control, int event,
    void *callbackData, int eventData1, int eventData2)
{
    int panelZoomState;
    int panelVisible;
 
    switch (event)
    {
    case EVENT_TIMER_TICK:
        GetPanelAttribute(panel,ATTR_WINDOW_ZOOM,&panelZoomState);
        GetPanelAttribute(panel,ATTR_VISIBLE,&panelVisible);
        if (panelVisible && (panelZoomState==VAL_MINIMIZE))
            HidePanel(panel);
        break;
     }
 return 0;
}
