BalloonTip Unit examples (WINDEV): BalloonTip
[ + ] Displaying BalloonTip.
A BalloonTip is an advanced tooltip. In most cases, this BalloonTip is displayed above an icon in the taskbar.
A BalloonTip is used to display an information to the user without interrupting his work (when the application is in background or when it is minimized in the Windows "Systray" for example).
Unlike the dialog boxes displayed by the WLanguage functions such as Info, Warning or Error, a BalloonTip is not locking. It is used to display messages whose importance and type can be configured.
A BalloonTip contains:
- an icon used to identify the type of message
- a title
- a "Close" button
- a specific message.
Minimum version required
