Minimize to SysTray

[h3llknite]

Hi All,

I've setup my program so that I can use a systray icon, and removed the taskbar icon. However, when I minimize my program, it minimizes to the corner of the screen (on top of the taskbar) instead of disappearing to the tray. Any idea what I can do to fix this?

Thanks

- explains about the SysTray.


Regarding the Minimizing - Why don't you check in the 'Form_Resize' event if your form has been minimized, then simply do a 'me.visible = false' ?

This way, the click event on the Icon in the SysTray can make your form visible again and restore it to it's normal size.
