H.NotifyIcon.Wpf 2.0.17

H.NotifyIcon - NotifyIcon for .Net Core 3.1/.Net 5/.Net 6 WPF and WinUI

** This is a fork, if you see any activity in the official version - it's better to use them - https://github.com/hardcodet/wpf-notifyicon **

This is an implementation of a NotifyIcon (aka system tray icon or taskbar icon) for the WPF/WinUI platform. It does not just rely on the Windows Forms NotifyIcon component, but is a purely independent control which leverages several features of the WPF/WinUI framework in order to display rich tooltips, popups, context menus, and balloon messages. It can be used directly in code or embedded in any XAML file.

Features

• Custom Popups (interactive controls) on mouse clicks.
• Customized ToolTips (Vista and above) with fallback mechanism for xp/2003.
• Rich event model including attached events to trigger animations in Popups, ToolTips, and balloon messages. I just love that.

• Custom balloons that pop up in the tray area. Go wild with styles and animations 🙂
