ObjectBar Systray

windows taskbar system tray in objectbar systray

Hi,

I have ObjectBar 2.1 with the MacPC (Modern) theme and I would like to know if you can display the information (icons) from the Windows Taskbar System Tray in the ObjectBar systray?

I don't want to use Windows Taskbar, but still need some of the icons from the System tray available.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Horst

Yes it's working here.  Just add the system tray object to your bar.

I have systray in the active elements, but no icons from the windows taskbars system tray are displayed. I left the configuration at default, is there any special configuration needed?

Okay, let's look at some things.   Press ctrl-alt-delete and bring up the Task Manager then click on Processes(2nd tab) and then User Name(column title in process listing).  Do you see sdmcp.exe running?  If not that's the problem.

OK, Yes SDMCP.exe is showing as running in the processes. The Windows Verion is XP Professional 2002 SP3

What version of Object Bar to have running?

I am running the latest version (Version 2.1, Build 756) downloaded last week. I think it must have to do something with XP on my laptop. I installed ObjectBar on a desktop with Windows-XP and SP3 and the Systemtray was displayed in the Objectbars systray, without problems. My laptop runs Symantec endpoint protection, could this cause the problem?

Something is blocking it.  Could be Symantec's Endpoint.  You'll have to test for yourself to find what will work.  Good luck.  I hope you find it.
