[CLOSED] How to hide Tray Icon
« on: December 15, 2012, 11:34:29 am »
I am creating a command line application with system tray icon,

myapp -showtray shows the tray application. but when i call mypp -hidetray then the tray is not removed.

 I am using TTrayIcon class.

mytray.show - works. but mytray.hide fails.

I was bit on a wrong track, everything is working fine now. So closing this thread.

Lazarus 1.0.4 (FPC) 2.6.0 on Windows 7(x86)  32bit

What happens when you move the mouse over the tray icon?
Windows is not always updating the tray immediately when an icon has disappeared.
When you hover the mouse over the removed icon, it might disappear.

Nothing happens, the icon stays there, with the functions associated with it.

<sigh> <isn't this obvious???> Upload a compilable sample project that shows the problem if you want somebody to look at it.
