Purely out of GUI vanity, I would like to make my task bar tool tip less...well, less "I wear a suit and work at Microsoft"-y. I can't seem to find a setting to do this, but I know that this particular function is relatively new so if anyone knows of a way to change the balloon look and feel I would very much appreciate a link or suggest...

(In my case, notifierText) Obviously, I am adding newlin...
Hi stack overflow, I have a little problem where if I have a WinForm and maximize it, and send it to the system tray, when I restore it, it isn't the maximum size any longer.

First of all, when I start the application normally (double-clicking on the exe), it works perfectly: the notify icon is always appearing in the system tray. It also works well when the application is launched at the end of an msi Setup (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1668274/run-exe-after-msi-installation). However, when the applic...

Hi all, Have you noticed modifications to the icons associated with files and folders when using file explorer in windows/linux while having a svn client installed (e.g., TortoiseSVN).

I'm trying allow drag and drop to the tray icon on my application. I know it's impossible to do this with the higher level C# WindowsForms API, since NotifyIcon doesn't support drag events. So with a little help of a more windows-experienced friend I set out to try this via Win32 API. The idea was registering a hook in the tray window ...
