29.26 How do I add an application to the Window's Tray? |
In design mode, you drop a NotifyIcon object on your form. You can then drop a ContextMenu on your form and add this menu to the NotifyIcon's ContextMenu property. This menu will be seen when the user rightclicks the try icon. You can add a handler for the NotifyIcon's Click event to catch the action of a user clicking the icon. |
| Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
|
| Dim trayItem As NotifyIcon = New NotifyIcon()
|
| trayItem.Icon = SystemIcons.Question
|
| trayItem.Visible = True
|
| AddHandler trayItem.Click, New EventHandler(AddressOf HandleTrayClick)
|
| End Sub
|
|
|
| Private Sub HandleTrayClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
|
| MessageBox.Show("Tray item clicked")
|
| End Sub |
