windows get minimized to the taskbar automatically when you allow them
to be minimized and the user clicks the third icon from the top right,
or you can do it programmatically in newer LabVIEW versions by setting
the minimzed state. What this guy meant was that he wants to minimize
to the system tray which is a very different thing than the taskbar ;-)
I answered with two possible Toolkits in another thread to do this.
Doing it yourself with shell32 functionality is rather thirty work
since it involves callback functions and quite some infrastructure
around that to really work well. Nothing for someone not quite seasoned
in C programming.

How do i get a print icon in task bar

installed printer with manufactures disk but i do not get pre-print icon on task bar.

Do you own Acrobat? If so what version? If not what version of Word and PP do you have? Newer versions contain non-Adobe software for creating pdfs. If you do not own Acrobat that it would be best to check in a Microsoft forum on how to use Word to create pdfs.

Lately, whenever I open a link in a new window, when that window opens it immediately minimizes down to the task bar. This is obviously annoying.

Hi BigBinAz,
Try to start firefox in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-extensions-themes-to-fix-problems safe mode], and in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode#Safe_Mode_options Safe Mode options] select ''Continue in Safe Mode'', don't make any changes in safe mode, and check it again.
'''EDIT''' : "select ''Continue in Safe Mode'', don't make any changes in safe mode" '''there is not an option any more, the safe mode options don't exist any more''', so don't search for safe mode options.
thank you

The right corner of the Task Bar is called System Tray.
This can be done with G Toolbox -> Systray Icon VIs:

How to enable bluetooth icon in task bar in rmbp with windows 8

The bluetooth icon dose not be showed in task bar in rmbp with windows 8.
The device of bluetooth dose not work correctly in device manager of windows 8 with the yellow exclamation mark.
The windows system event log shows BTHUSB alerts and error with code of 3 and 17. The driver is unloaded.
Some apple magic mouse's functions can work, without sliding to navigate.
The current OS is in bios enumeration mode with MBR and The logged user is in the normal account and the bootcamp is newest.
I have remembered that the bluetooth was good without above problems when the windows 8 was installed firstly and the bootcamp can not work in administrator account. After being restored NVRAM with option+command+p+r and reinstalled windows 8 enterprise 64 completely again, it shows these problems when the bootcamp works well.
Except the first windows installation, the second time is selecting EFI boot and the last time is in normal mode, which has no difference in the bluetooth problem. In a normal or administrator account, the same problems appear.

The bluetooth drive problems have disappeared after the following steps:
reset intel SMC
remove the bluetooth device with yellow mark.
scan system device changes. find 3 devices without any yellow mark: (a) Apple Broadcom Built-in Bluetooth, (b) Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator, (c) Microsoft Bluetooth LE Enumerator.
find magic mouse and it works well with all functions. and the icon appears in the taskbar.
no BTHUSB error is in system log.
I don't know the right reasons. Maybe the efi windows installation has changed rmbp efi settings.

Magically Changing Icons - M$ Task Bar

Hi,
In Windows XP (Windows NT), when you open multiple windows of a program, the programs become inconisized and grouped together under one menu icon with a name. For instance, opening Windows Explorer multiple times creates a menu on the task bar that displays the Windows Explorer Icon, the number of windows open, and the title of the program--Windows Explorer.
However, when I run my Java programs multiple times (or make many frames within a program) and iconisized them, they appear on the task bar as a menu with a little white window icon with a blue title, the number of windows (frames) open, and "java" or "javaw" beside it.
I know how to add icons to frames. What I don't know is how to keep my icon and application name on the task bar when windows (frames) or applications become grouped. Any helpful information would be greatly appreciated. Spent 4 hours looking all over Sun's site, trying to find an answer. I've even tried to download some open source programs and tried to disect them to find the code. Sample code would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
J Apprentice

J Apprentice,
XP groups these together because they are using the same executable (java.exe). The name which appears in the taskbar group is gained for the exe's description attribute (take a look at the exe's properties from explorer) or , failing that, the name of the executable. The only way around this is to create a JNI wrapper executable which links to the JVM and calls your main method instead of executing java.exe. (BTW this is how java.exe works anyway). Some java installers create these wrappers for you.

Missing icon on task bar of executable powerbuilder

I have a very strange issue....
This occurs when I execute our software application that has been build with powergen( powerbuilder). When I execute the executable( acct123.exe) that was built, some of the icons that we created and use ( on a task bar) have 'red X' instead of the image. When I select the icon it executes properly.
I talked to some of the people testing the application and they would see the 'red X' some days and other days, the image would display.
I have attached a jpg that shows the icons red X
any thoughts?????????????????????????

Hello Deanna,
A few thoughts / questions.
1) Has this application worked properly before or is this a new EXE?
2) Is it possible that the application is referencing any of the images using a directory path that is set up in the properties of a datawindow and the path has changed?
3) Any changes in the Operating System or Servers? What is the environment? I ask this because you say sometimes users see the icons and sometimes they don't.
4) Verify that all the files referenced are in the same directory (EXE, PBD, DLL, images, etc.)
5) And as Bruce asked is there PBR file referenced? If so, did you include it in the Build process?

When I open a new Word Document, it minimizes it to the task bar at bottom and when I go to maximize , it disappears to the left of the screen. What is wrong?

I open a new Microsoft Word Document and it immediately minimizes to the task bar at the bottom of the screen. When I go to maximize the document, it "disappears" immediately to the left going off the screen.
I am having the same problems with emails when I try to forward or create new emails. They will not hold long enough for me to write on them - they disappear off the screen.

How is that related to Firefox support?

4.0 EA2 Bug - Icon on Task Bar Cannot Be Repositioned

After pinning the new icon to the task bar I tried to move it to a new position next to the SQLDeveloper icon. When I start to move it the right click menu shows up and the icon will not move. This was not a problem on 4.0 EA1.

I'm on windows 8.1 and visual studio 2013.
I set an application icon in properties for the project.
I set the icon to the mainwindow in markup:
<Window
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:wpf1"
x:Class="wpf1.MainWindow"
Icon="Graphicloads-100-Flat-2-Bank.ico"
Title="MainWindow" Height="650" Width="525" :
I then change that icon for the main window ( the first window loaded is the main window ).
private void Button_Click(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
this.Icon = new BitmapImage(new Uri("pack://application:,,,/wpf1;component/IconbestHelldesignDevilmad.ico"));
I see the exe with a bank icon initially.
When I run the app I see a bank icon on the top left of my window and the taskbar.
When I clilck the button both change immediately.
Both my icons are resources in the app, but that shouldn't really matter.
There's a load of other junk in the app from previous experiments
But... I zipped it up and stuck a copy on onedrive.
http://1drv.ms/1A0046A
Note that this is something which used to be a bug in previous versions of visual studio.
Whilst debugging in vs, the icon didn't change.
Hope that helps.

Two Boot camp icons in task bar--fix?

Ever since I updated to Boot Camp 2.02 and then to 2.1, I have 2 separate Boot Camp icons in my task bar (that thingie on the bottom right of your screen) under Vista-64. One of them launches the control panel for BootCamp 2.0, and the other for 2.1 (both work). Does anyone know how to get rid of one of them. Speak slowly for the Windows-illiterate. Thanks.

I had the same problem. This is because you have part of the 32 BIT Boot Camp installation running.
To resolve launch Vista then go to Start> Control panel, switch to the Classic View and double click on Programs and Features. From the list you should see two items named Boot Camp Services. Select the one that is about 6.9 MB in size (the other will be 253MB, do not remove this one!) then press uninstall, confirm the action when prompted then restart when prompted. Once restarted there will only be one Boot Camp icon in Vista.
Job done!

Quicktime icon in task bar removal - HOW?

I was hoping someone could tell me what to do to remove the quick time icon and keep it from loading at time of boot into the task bar on the right. I don't understand the purpose of certain programs automatically installing their icons in the "date/clock" window without the user specifying to do so.

I was hoping someone could tell me what to do to remove the quick time icon and keep it from loading at time of boot into the task bar on the right.
In Quicktime, go "Edit > Preferences > QuickTime Preferences" (or, alternatively, launch your QuickTime control panel).
Click on the Advanced tab. Uncheck "Install QuickTime icon in system tray", and click OK.
Restart the PC. Has the QuickTime icon gone from the system tray?

Bluetooth icon in task bar

My T60p crashed yesterday -- manage to recreate everything except the bluetooth icon for quickly launching bluetooth connections in the task bar. Does anyone know how to restore it, please??

Hello,
In Microsoft Windows Vista you can do this by opening the Control Panel, starting the Bluetooth Devices (filename: BTHPROPS.CPL) control panel applet, going to the Options tab, and selecting (checking) the Show Bluetooth icon in the notification area option.

Multiple icons in task bar

I have Firefox pinned to my task bar. Since updating to 9.0.1 when I click on the icon a second icon appears in the task bar. They both function properly. The second one shows tab previews of the first one but not visa versa. I have been through my options many times and can't find anything that covers this. It makes no sense to have duplicate icons which leads me to believe something is wrong. And if something is just a little wrong now it won't be long until it is very wrong. Is it something I did?

Thank you for your suggestion. About:config had hundreds of prefs and I had no idea what any of them were about. My grandson offered a solution that was very simple and corrected the problem. I simply right clicked on the second icon and pinned it to the task bar then unpinned the first icon. Problem solved. He thought it was because the first icon was opening up a newer version of Firefox. Apparently he was correct. Thank you again for your suggestion. Now I know where all the preferences hide.
