Using to create tooltips for status bar icons

Does anyone know if there is an easy way, maybe a library I can use to create tool tips that I can use to bring up the information next to my system tray icon?  Or is it something that I have to dive into the SDK to do?  Thanks in advance!

Hey tstanley-

CVI does not provide an API to create one of these balloon popups.  However, many other tasks to icon tray can be accomplished with functions in the Toolbox of the programmers.  It is an excellent example that illustrates these functions named Trayicon.

To create the balloon popup you speak, you're either going to have to manage the API icon by yourself, or make some changes to the toolbox.c source code, because some necessary Manager functions are not exported.  Use this as a reference, I added a few lines of code to toolbox.c (without any verification for clarity of errors) to display a very simple balloon popup.  Let me know if you have any questions.

  • Mystery on my status bar icon

    I have an icon that keep appearing on my status bar that looks like a spinning disck. It's a circle with 2 arrows, it contains the effect of rotation. I can't ID it. It has not listed n the manual .pdf. The only way I can kill this is to restart the phone. Advanced Task Killer shows nothing running. Can someone ID this?

    I get the same icon when my Droid is synchronization of the Contacts.  If you turn off your Sync Contacts with your Gmail account, although it is in the notifications bar, I bet, it will go away.  It could also be related to synchronization of calendar or Gmail.  I hope this helps.

  • BlackBerry smartphones, what is this status bar icon?

    No amount of Google-fu helped me. In the screenshot here, just to the left of the Bluetooth indicator:

    https://i.imgur.com/zOB3DIS.PNG

    All I could find is he is somehow connected to the physical keyboard. Otherwise, I have no idea.

    Its the indiateur caps.

    Press caps on the PKB once to toggle caps. He will stay until the upper button is press once again, or a charater key. Press and hold the upper button on the PKB and the arrow will become solid. Theis is caps lock shift and each pressed for caps lock key will be crucial. Press the caps button to turn off caps lock.

  • prerequisite status bar - will not pass until v28

    So, updated to 29 on machines as well my Win7 and XP before I realized the problem:
    .
    Mozilla is hell decided to hide things from me.
    .
    Read another discussion (now closed) the loss of the status bar. I think this is the first time where they pronounce the dead status bar. Tried the tools-addon toolbars display and he's not here.
    .
    Then, returned to 28 and will stay there until the status bar is returned or if it becomes so outdated that I'll have to go back to IE.
    .
    On my Win7Ult machine, it was easy - just the latest restore point until I installed 29 and he was there. Don't wotk on XP, but fortunately, there is an FTP site that has copies of each version, you can think of. I chose the last eng - us. 28 and installed more than 29. I was surprised that the installation did not notice and balk at it. also surprised it didn't crash and burn, but I write that this on that now and everything seems OK.
    .
    So, you ask ' where is the issue?
    .
    It's this: the status bar is the darling of the overwhelming majority of Windows programs. I think it's like the third time, they stole my status bar. Flying the status bar is proof positive that Mozilla hate its users - by moving all that used to be on the status bar of varied and diverse places, they actually chose to hide things from their users and I find it unforgivable beggars belief. For example, they say that he moved "add ons" to his own 'addon' toolbar, which is NOT enabled by default. You see, they were hiding in it. MY QUESTION IS - how DO I GET MOZILLA to STOP DOING the WRONG THING and return my browser to the way I like it. As I said in the topic "status bar is a requirement for my support. do not write new that I have to accept or lump it. I'm on "strike28" until the status bar is returned. "If this isn't the case, then I'll go WHERE EVERY OTHER BROWSER VALUES THE STATUS BAR LIKE I DO." As a side note, several months ago Thunderbird made a really weird security update which has destroyed my ability to send emails. I am now a happy user of web mail, and nobody's trying to destroy my ability to use their product. If they had a 'intuitive changes', it would be different things, but is hiding that you're used to seeing in a place of THAT ENTIRE INDUSTRY agrees, it's the death knell for my interest, if not the product itself. If a large enough turmoil cannot be generated, so it's probably not my kind of product in any case. CIAO.pcGnome

    The real status bar has been removed from Firefox (from Firefox 4)more than 3 years ago and was replaced by the bar of the add-on that is now gone, too. Get over it already!

    There are a number of extensions that restore the bar Add on.
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/status-4-EVAR/
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/the-addon-bar/
    With the extension Classic theme restaurateur cor - el mentioned 3 months ago, when this thread was started.

    Firefox will never be "finished". As the web evolves, the combination of the devices used to access the web is changing, and as the Mozilla developers decide to add or improve features of Firefox, Firefox will evolve and change.

    Bottom line is, if you want a "status bar" you have a number of choices for the installation of a "status bar" in versions of Firefox 29 + via an extension.
    Or you can continue to use Firefox 28 and live without the security updates that are released every 6 weeks with each new version of Firefox.
    Or you can install a 3rd party that is based on Gecko version.

  • How can I get the status bar of firefox to view more details url from left to right?

    The part of the poster for details display in url text status bar from the chops on the middle and displays more than left to the far right information. I don't like on the right side - I need to see more text from left to right. I am able to view either the left side as much as possible hiding the right side, or am I able to display a certain way full status bar information?

    This change seems to come when I upgraded from v.4 to v. 7.1. (I'm running it under Windows).

    Your description is too ambiguous, but Status-4-Evar extension restores the use of the features of status bar in the bar of replacement modules, explicit directions in this page of mine. The arrangement of its parts is customizable.

    Please mark "resolved" a response that will better help others with a similar problem - hope it was her.

    You can make Firefox 7.0.1 look to Firefox 3.6. *, see numbered items 1-10 of the next topic difficulty Firefox 4.0 UI toolbar, problems (make Firefox 4.0 to 8.0, resemble 3.6). If you make changes, you must be aware of what has changed and what it takes to use changed or missing features.

  • Windows Explorer - status bar

    Under the reader of CD/DVD in Windows Explorer - tile view - I get a red bar state showing amount of disk used/available. Normally, the status bar is blue. What does the red bar? I can't see the content of the DVD - then it's probably bad - but I would like a confirmation of what means red color. Thank you - cbski

    Hi cbski,

    I am not sure why the bar is red, but you may find the answer if you go to disk management and examine the information here. Click on start - Control Panel - System Maintenance - under administrative tools, click on create and format hard disk Partitions.

    I'm moving this question to programs where someone may be able to offer additional information.

  • DAQmx (Version 9.1) Create Channel for accelerometer will NOT convert m/s ^ 2

    I use DAQmx create channels for accelerometer to get results in the unit (m/s ^ 2)

    It worked until DAQmx Version 8.9.

    Now, I tested it with DAQmxVersion 9.1 and the results are in g (not converted to m/s ^ 2!)

    I use wth .vi DAQmx Create Channel (I-acceleration-accelerometer) entries

    units = m/s ^ 2

    sensitivity units = V/g (there is no sensitivity unit V /(m/s^2) available)

    sensitivity sensitivity value in V/g =

    I have read the data with

    In DAQmx<= 8.9="" the="" double="" numbers="" are ="" correct="" converted="" to="">

    but in DAQmx 9.1 not (values are in g and low by 9.81)

    My solution is the following change

    units = g

    sensitivity units = V/g

    sensitivity = sensitivity value in V /(m/s^2)

    Then the double numbers are not converted, but m/s ^ 2.

    And this work in all versions of DAQmx.

    The problem is:
