Syntax:

DIALOG ADD,TASKICON,<name>,<icon filename>,<tooltip text>, <styles>

Description:

This dialog element creates a task bar system tray (notification area) icon which will generate <name>CLICK events when clicked with the mouse.

If <icon filename> is null, the program's own icon is used. If specified, the filename may be an external .ico or .exe file, or it may specify an ICON resource.

Both the icon and the tooltip text may be changed by the program using the DIALOG SET command. If the text is a file path or resource identifier, the icon is changed. If not, the text is used to update the tooltip. The icon may also be enabled and disabled using DIALOG commands.

Styles:

[VDS6] Two styles are available for this dialog element

INFOCLICK	A <name>INFOCLICK event if the user clicks on the body of an information balloon displayed using the command DIALOG SHOWINFO.
MOUSEOVER	A <name>ENTER event will be generated when the mouse enters the boundary of the icon, and a <name>LEAVE event when the mouse leaves the boundary.
