System Tray Icon

By Michael Kurz

This package allows you to use the tray icon from within a VDF application using WinAPI calls only. It doesn't need FlexOLE or FlexCom at all.
The package supports multiple icons, blinking, cascading menu's and more. Have a look at the source-code for more details.

Included is also a little program that shows you how one can use this package.

You can also use the trayicon for just a part of your program, like one particular view and activate this view from the tray. The suggested way to do this is to use the visible_state property for that.

We found out that the following specs for the bitmaps work best in all cases.

Bitmapsize: 16 x 16 pixels
Colordepth: 256 colors (= 8bpp)

Dependencies: This package also uses the popupmenu class that is included in the zip.
