Hi! I wanna create a icon in the tray that should popup balloon-messages. Here's my code in the WM_CREATE:
I get a trayicon with a tooltip if I hold the pointer over it, but no balloon.
And well if you noticed, I use NOTIFYICONDATAB - a structure that I created on my own from the VC++ includes, so I can use the "extended"-version with szInfo. It looks like this:
NOTIFYICONDATAB STRUCT
cbSize DWORD ?
hwnd DWORD ?
uID DWORD ?
uFlags DWORD ?
uCallbackMessage DWORD ?
hIcon DWORD ?
szTip BYTE 128 dup (?)
dwState DWORD ?
dwStateMask DWORD ?
szInfo BYTE 256 dup (?)
uTimeout DWORD ?
uVersion DWORD ?
szInfoTitle BYTE 64 dup (?)
dwInfoFlags DWORD ?
NOTIFYICONDATAB ENDS

Shell_NotifyIcon requires NOTIFYICONDATA structure, which is:
GUID is 16 bytes, CHAR is a byte, everything else is a dword.
Union here makes the uTimeout and uVersion occupy same space, so you need to use an union, or only 1 of them.
typedef struct _NOTIFYICONDATA {
DWORD cbSize;
HWND hWnd;
UINT uID;
UINT uFlags;
UINT uCallbackMessage;
HICON hIcon;
TCHAR szTip[64];
DWORD dwState;
DWORD dwStateMask;
TCHAR szInfo[256];
union {
UINT uTimeout;
UINT uVersion;
};
TCHAR szInfoTitle[64];
DWORD dwInfoFlags;
GUID guidItem;
} NOTIFYICONDATA, *PNOTIFYICONDATA;GUID is 16 bytes, CHAR is a byte, everything else is a dword.
Union here makes the uTimeout and uVersion occupy same space, so you need to use an union, or only 1 of them.
Okey, I changed my structure to this, with no luck:
NOTIFYICONDATAB STRUCT
cbSize DWORD ?
hwnd DWORD ?
uID DWORD ?
uFlags DWORD ?
uCallbackMessage DWORD ?
hIcon DWORD ?
szTip BYTE 64 dup (?)
dwState DWORD ?
dwStateMask DWORD ?
szInfo BYTE 256 dup (?)
uTimeout DWORD ?
szInfoTitle BYTE 64 dup (?)
dwInfoFlags DWORD ?
guidItem DWORD 4 dup (?)

actually there's different structs, relative to the version of tooltips you 'request', which makes it a total mess, i messed with it before by disassembling some programs in windows that use the balloon tip stuff, i shall post the code later on (havent got it handy atm)
Okey evlncrn8, I'll wait for your code then. I've been messing with this for hours today :/
