In my application when it is iconized in the system tray, and through a ContextMenuStrip1 displays a context menu and when I click the icon I can choose what to display; the application, close it etc.
Now, when the mouse is over the icon I would like to show a tooltip (property that unfortunately does not have, but that have the individual menu items), it always shows me the name of the menu object: ContextMenuStrip1, even in its text property set something else.
Since at some times the app makes updates in background I would like to show under the icon a small progressbar as do some application. How is this possible in vb.net? (I'm using VB2012)
Thank you all. I resolved you need to use the Text property of the notifyIcon object.
